I've been hard after turkey's since the beginning of April, and I finally filled my tag 4-22-12!

I called two jakes to 4 yard, and shoot at my first opportunity. The 2 jakes take off side by side after the shot, and the one I shot at fell within 20 yards. Then the other one started to fly and my arrow was in him! So I not only got my first turkey with my bow, but my second turkey in one shot!

Here's the one I was meaning to shoot-

Another 60 yards his buddy-

Congrats on the Double, if that would happen here in Illinois ,and the Game Warden was around one would be in big trouble.

fantastic, there can't be too many of more stories like that!

Thanks guys! It's one I won't soon forget that's for sure!

tradbower- In the unit I live it's only a one bird limit. So I called the Game Warden and told him what happened. He came out and took the bird to a needy family. He appreciated I turned it in and knows accidents do happen, so he didn't give me a ticket.

Really cool, congrats on the double.

But 71 @ 28 & accurate

wish I had your strength, go find some mountain lions, the turkeys don't stand a chance.

Two for one deals! That's good stuff right there.

Those are pretty birds. Two for one? More like 1 in a million!
Kudos to you on being a stand-up guy with the game warden, you get to eat a bird and some other family will also get that privilege due to your efforts!
