    So I have posted some videos of success, so here is one of failure. My 4 yr old son and I went out yesterday morning. He was super stoked once the birds started gobbling and soon as they hit the ground we had 4 run in.

    Mistake 1- Soon as he saw them coming he hopped up to have a better look and the birds busted him. They froze at 25 yds and just weren't coming any closer.

    Mistake 2- I go for the shot and instinctively use my top pin (20), the Bullhead hits way low and gives the dude a hard thump in the tittie. My new bow is currently set up with my sight off my Dren (didn't have new sight in time to get set up for turkey) When I swapped it over to the Creed it was hitting right on at the top pin being 10 not 20......
    So I just left it that way so I could throw it back on the Dren with little hassle.. whoops

    Anyway we had a pretty cool hunt other than lil man being SUPER disappointed in his old man! I mean big time lol

    Hey TJ... at least you got out, had some action... and enjoyed time with your son!
    Boy am I ever glad I don't have any 'fails' on camera - you'd all probably die laughing.
    And having your son being super disappointed I think is hilarious (been there - done that!).
    Best of luck next time... show 'em how it's done dad.

    Hard thump in the tittie? :lmao:

    That experience probably blows away many "successful " hunts you have had...great stuff, bro!

    Thanks for takin your son hunting, TJ!

    I'm not postin my fail video from yesterday (OK turkey opener)... shot out of an alternate blind window cause the birds locked up wouldn't come on in to the decoys (similar to yours' my buddy made a commotion and they got nervous, but he's full grown and should know better!), my arrow clipped the bottom of the blind window, veered up, hit a limb over the turkey's head and scared the crap out of everyone!

    Good times though, as always!!!
