    Hey guys. On April 8th I tagged my first turkey of the year. Had an awesome hunt, this was a tom that I had a close call with 2 days before. He weighs 23lbs, has a 9 1/4" beard and 7/8" spurs. Diffidently not my biggest turkey but the fact that I finally got the whole hunt on film after about 6 years of filming turkeys is awesome! This was also my first kill with the new Hoyt Nitrum! It did a great job! Here are some pictures and the video down below. Hope you enjoy the hunt as much as I did.
