i will be turkey hunting bow only this year without a blind. i have been practicing both sitting ( stool ) and kneeling shots from one knee and both. i plan on setting until i have them coming in and going to one knee well before the shot. i have multiple setups in mind using "natural blinds" . i am ready for the challenge but no doubt will be extremely difficult! any advice or tips??

Yes!!! I put them close too, 10-12 yards at the most from the blind. I use 2 hens and a jake. Camo matters here!

Yup, they may be close, but you still don't shoot at the bird, you have to pick a spot.....

Get yourself a kneepad from the hardware store and equip it on the hunt. Lets you stay in position without the searing pain in your kneecap.
