"A bird in the hand......"
« on: May 10, 2013, 05:07:00 PM »
The turkeys seem to have vanished about a week before hunting season opened last Friday. This guy strolled by my blind at about 2 yards this morning so I thought about the "....two in the bush". Shot him with my DAS/MAX I combo, 55#, Axis 400 shaft and 200 grain Razorcap. He made it all of 15 yards. The arrow went thru the breast bone/heart and I couldn't get it out until I dressed him out.

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

A bird with a bow, is like an elephant in my mind!

Amazing! Sweet!

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
