turkey with my bow

i did not post this when i shot a few weeks ago but i thought what the hell i post it.

not much of story, ground blind in an area with a lot of birds. i got a 20 yard shot on it, hammered it and it went down quickly. taste great, it had a spiral beard and about 1" spurs.

 

good deal man.........good shooting!!

 

nice shootin'! what head did you use?

 

Muzzy mx3

 

Nice bird! I gotta ask whats the story with this 225 nontypical? You didnt kill it in Oregon did you?

 

good job man. I love hunting

 

i did kill it in Oregon believe it or not.

it scored 231 gross and 225 net, he broke the old Oregon state record by 4+ inches. that record was like 40+ years old. i shot it in 2007 i missed him on the 3rd day of season and killed him 12 days later

 

Thats awesome, I was at a sportsmans show and it showed the previous state record and it was a frickin hog. Congrats thats a huge accomplishment not many people get to experience.

 

Nice bird. Now let's see a pic of that deer in your avatar...
