Here is the view from the blind-
My set up wasn't much, just one lonely hen decoy. After I got all set up I wait a little bit and do a few yelps, one lone gobble straight in front of me. Then about 5 minutes later I see a couple turkeys north of me heading east. I would call a little and then would stop and look over but kept on that same path.
30 or so minutes go by and I decide to change diaphragm calls to a real raspy hen. I did a few yelps and 5-8 gobblers went off right in front of me. I think to myself "Oh man this is going to be good..."
10 minutes go by and those toms gobbled at everything I did, and the best part was some of them were getting closer. Pretty soon 3 big toms show up and sit about 200 yards away just gobbling for all their worth. I finally get them to cross the creek and they start to close the distance.
Then all the sudden two gobbles right behind me about 20 yards away! I get ready. I was guessing it was the two jakes from earlier and I was right. The 3 toms saw them and started to pick up the pace, but they were to slow. The two jakes came strutting in at 4 steps from my blind. Everything happened so fast I didn't pay any attention to see if they were both there. Before I knew it I came back to anchor and the shot was gone....
Perfect hit! The jake ran about 20 yards and laid down and didn't move. His buddy was right beside him and he tried to fly and my arrow was sticking out of him!
Apparently they were shoulder to shoulder when I shot. My arrow went clean through the one I was trying to shoot and stuck his buddy. So now I not only shot my first turkey with my bow but I also got my second with the same arrow!
