Congrats RT. That's a great accomplishment.

It's even more amazing when you consider he's shooting that Bowtech!

Congrats on the bird, but I'm a little disappointed. Usually your stories have a lot of detail and are really funny. This one was straight to the point.

A bowhunter once asked Maggie how he could stop shooting under elk. Maggie's reply was,
"Start shooting at shorter elk."
After your success on turkeys the past two years I'm beginning to think maybe Maggie was right
Congratulations

I think chasing turkeys with my bow is great practice for big game. I have the utmost confidence now when I draw my bow. I've changed my grip and finally it feels comfortable.
With a bow its hard, but I like a good challenge.

Nice job. I drew a fall tag. I hope to make that my 1st kill, and with a Bowtech.
