Title: Big Bird down in Kansas
Post by: suburbanirma on April 11, 2017, 12:52:00 PM

Enjoying the last couple of days of the Kansas archery-only turkey hunting season. Heard birds gobbling on the roost right away in the morning and then called a bunch of jakes and three gobblers in to my hen decoy sitting about eight yards in front of my pop-up blind. Put a strutter down with a well-placed arrow (on a string tracker, but didn't need it). Also shot some wild flowers in a field near the blind.
