I have a great opportunity for getting a turkey (about 12 roam through my neighbors field almost every Thursday morning) and i was wondering if it is possible to bag one of these prehistoric looking beasts with a bow. If so what is the suggested equipment to use?
very doable with a blind and a sharp broad head! slice it up real thin, Marrinade, and grill! Mmm, mmm, Good! Make sure you are in a legal season though, i killed a nice tom this spring (shotgun) completely legal and the game warden was at my house 45 min after i killed, and kill was a half hour away from my house. Guess my grand parent's neighbor wasn't happy that called this big guy off their land
Almost every Thursday? What are they doing every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday? Have you seen where they come in and go out? A ground blind would be the best to hunt from. I would also employ one or two confidence decoys (hens). Time will tell....good luck!
No idea where they are the rest of the week but when i am back in the woods deer hunting i hear them all around. I do know where they go back into the woods never seen them actually come out. they usually hang around a big downed tree that i am thinking i could turn into a natural blind really easy...
I'll see what i can do. Fall turkey season is up the 28th here in Ohio so hopefully i can get one before then.
They have broadheads specifically for turkeys but regular ones will do the trick, and I always see more turkeys in deer season than in the spring too
