Here is my first Rio Grand gobbler I shot back in 1991 and since then I taken 11 gobblers with my bow ... In 2005 I shot a merriams that officially weighed 25 lbs 7oz and had it weighed in Chewalah at the hardware store ,they signed my score sheet for being a witness and I believe it will be the new state record for weight ..actually never weighed that rio but you can see it was no little turkey neither...bow hunting is getting alot more popular now they have these pop up blinds but I still love cuttin and running with my shotgun.. nothen cooler than hiking your butt off a couple miles from the road and getting one to gobble at you .. your heart beats fast and nothen like it ..
