Makes you wonder what we miss while we are napping in the woods. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought that was going to be this year with my broken foot but some stiff insoles and I’m feeling really good. I hope by the time I need to go to a more supportive boot I won’t be hunting the way I do and won’t need them anyways. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lacrosse burly air grips. I don’t know if it counts because I buy a new pair every year. I’ve had those boots on for probably 45 out of my last 50 deer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you’re after the challenge why don’t you hunt with a trad bow? Why do you think the technology you use with a compound is acceptable but Xbow technology isn’t? Again, I’m against full inclusion I’m just curious why/how your line in the sand is cams, peeps, release, etc but not scope and butt stock? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have less than 50% of my hearing so I stand most of the time I’m in a stand looking around the tree, another reason why I’ve went to a saddle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That solidifies my point, It’s all mental. There’s nothing different. Shooting is shooting I don’t care if it’s a BB gun, a bazooka or a compound. The exact same fundamentals apply, yes there are a few more/different muscles you’re using but that’s it. If you’re struggling on game day Google stress drills. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The mental part of that I think someone’s going to mess up if they can’t hold it together no matter the weapon. Sight alignment, trigger control and breath control all matter the same with any weapon that has sights and a trigger. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ll take a crossbow 10-1, give me crosshairs and a trigger any day if tight groups are what I’m after! My dad taught me a long time ago to set stands quartering away over his left shoulder, right for me shooting lefty from the expected shooting lanes and using the tree to rest my grip elbow into when shooting a compound. I’ve never really known anyone else to do this but I love doing it. It’s also why a saddle was such an easy transition for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Too many variables. I’ve had birds fly down in the pitch dark and I’ve had them stay in trees until 8. If he could see the hen and there is other gobblers around it would make sense that he’d want to get down to her first. Another thing to remember is 530 on the eastern edge of the state is a lot different than 530 on the western edge. So exact times really don’t mean much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Found these birds yesterday afternoon while scouting a recent land swap of public. He gobbled a bunch from the tree down in a swamp and I got in to about 100yds and setup. Once it got light I could hear hens so I moved and got in between them and him. Once I heard him fly down I made a few soft yelps on the diaphragm and that’s all it took.

Absolutely no gobbling today! Found a gobbler that was henned up and they were interested in anything I gave them and worked off onto the neighbors. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love my small game. It’s an awesome little rifle. I don’t use the factory peep it goes back and forth between a Williams peep and a scope. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Depends on the day, I’ve heard some of the most gobbles when it was pouring and I’ve had them be silent when it’s barely a drizzle. They do tend to go to fields earlier, generally on the highest point of the field so they can see better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Up and at em’ trying to get a buddy his first turkey this morning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had a lot of gobbling from in the dark until 6 and they started back up at 10. I might make it until Wednesday before I fall back into my 8-12 routine. Getting up at 4 to hear them gobble from the tree only to go silent when their hens show up is something I tire of very quickly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

6 paces at 1158, boom baby!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That was a close one! Found a bird from the road had to take the long way around because I don’t have permission on the property he was on but can hunt the woods behind the field. Got in as close as I felt comfortable found a tree and he cut me off but was a couple hundred yards further than where I’d seen him, we went back and fourth for a minute or so then I shut up. He kept gobbling but never got closer. Then I heard a gobble to my right, a few light yelps and purrs and he was coming on a string. He got to 30yds but wouldn’t come under the fence. And eventually worked his way off. I dropped into the ravine and got in front of him. My Hail Mary is in the air… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can’t, best you can do is have an idea where he is based on topography and know how far said topography is from your location. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Shooting a compound is easy. Many against inclusion think it’s the time and effort to get proficient with a compound that is the difference between them and Xbow hunters. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Catch and release turkey hunting, it’s all part of the fun! 6 jakes ran off the Tom I was on. On to the next property. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Birds gobbling! I Should have looked at a weather report. I’m pretty cold but still happy to be out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
