Excellent work on a very nice bird.  Terrific photograph in that creek too.  Really nice rain we're getting.  Just had another 2 1/2 inches this evening. 

Take care, Chase

Congrats, I really enjoy your stories and posts.   Typically, l pick and choose what I read based on the topic. However, any of your posts I see results in a click to read regardless of topic. I have learned a lot from your experience and hunting posts.   Thanks

Congratulations on a nice, really nice Turkey.  Nice looking bow with the same arrows you made, like those too. Just curious, what are the specs on the bow, arrows and broadheads? It looks like rain in the forecast, stay dry.

Congratulations on a beautiful bird! It doesn’t get any better than that.
Never measure the mountain until you have reached the top, then you will see how low it is.

Sam,  what string & length do you have on the bow.  I have the same bow,  but a lefty. I want to get a FF string for it.
