Two Missouri Turkeys
« on: May 07, 2012, 11:42:00 AM »
I had a really tough season this year.  It was the end of the 2nd week before I connected on my first bird.  Second bird came the last weekend on the next to last day of season.  I spent many, many hours chasing turkeys this year, more than I have in the past.

I gave a couple of jakes and bearded hens a pass, I told myself it was long beards or bust.

Here is my "Turkey Mobile", it carry's my blind, chair, and decoys.

 

Turkey # 1
 

Turkey # 2 - no string tracker, shot was a little far to use the string tracker

 
Sights, SIGHTS, we don't need no stinkin sights!!!!!

Congratulations Scott, I have yet to get one with a bow. How far is "TOO FAR" for a string tracker? Just curious.
Hmmmmm. I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm
not sure that what you heard is what I actually meant!
