    I may be a couple weeks late posting this but I've gotta put it up!!! This is my first turkey and it was taken with a bow!! I shot him at 6:30 a.m. on opening morning of the Minnesota season!! As you can see in the picture, it was taken right before the sun came up!! It was such a great hunt and quick too!!

    24.2 lbs, 9 9/16" beard, 15/16" spurs!!
