Frist Trad Bird
« on: May 07, 2017, 12:08:00 PM »


Finally got my first trad turkey but it was not without adventure.  After the shot he flew up into a tree.  About two minutes later he crashed down.  I waited about 20 minutes then went over to find him.  Couldn't find him and while searching he jumps up next to me and flew off.  I decided to give him some more time.  About a hour later I went to where I saw him go down and was able to recover him.  Not a long beard but still a nice bird for number one with my Titan.    One side of the breast is in the crock pot for tonights dinner.  Creamed turkey!

That's awesome. I have had a couple fly off over the years, and never been able to locate them! Glad you found him.

Congrats,

Bisch

That bow has your string on it.  Works just fine.

Thanks everyone.  Pretty excited over this.  I love turkey hunting as much as anything and too take one with my recurve has been at the top of my hunting list.  I got a new pot call this year from Chain Reaction Game calls and it has some of the best sounds I have ever made from a slate call.  The new call along with my DSD Jake has been deadly this year.
