You told it just fine Jason!  Man that is some tough looking country to have to hunt turkeys in, my hat is off to you.  Congrats on a job well done!  :thumbsup:

Great story, could have drug it out a lot longer without bothering me any. Love to share the ride when arrows fly to their mark.

Congrats ELk Song!  You really earned that bird!!  I was looking at you pictures and thought that it looks a LOT more like a place where I'd be looking to hunt Chukars then turkys!  Your story reads like a lot of chuckar hunts I have been on as well, just different bird.    :D    Honor to your skills and hard work!
got arrows?

That is a great story and and a great bird. Shooting one like that with no blind and no time to set up is the highest art.

Congratulations!!!
When a man shoots with a bow it is own vigor of body that drives the arrow,  his own mind controls the missile's flight......His trained muscles and toughened thews have done the work

MYoung,
  If you went straight north from the pool 2000' that is where i was.

Greenhed, the bow is a Robertson "buffalo" bow.
