Wow!  That is a *nice* Tom - especially with the multiple beards!

And that is a nice lookin' longbow as well.

Those children will be ready to drop the string on their first Toms before you know it!

Shoot straight, Shinken

Very nice bird!!!  I have never seen a bird with multiple beards where I hunt.
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Have there been any more multiple beard birds taken where you hunt?  Both of the birds I took last year (west-central KY farm) where I hunt had double beards - looked like twins!  Just curious about the genetics in your area.  Great bird Mark . . . bet the kids got a kick of of it!

Mark, any time you can stick a turkey that is just awesome!  Two questions! Are you hunting out of blind?  And if not, are you shooting from a portable chair or just sitting on the ground and shooting.

Thanks...
I'm hunting out of an older stlye Doublebull T5,I've got a little tripod folding chair with a back on it that I use to sit in...Really wanting one of the Magnus Rack packs just can't justify spending that much money on one...

Thanks Again..
