    Congrats Crick !!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Sounds like it was a fun hunt... I love just using whats available on the ground such as deadfalls blowdowns etc to hide in and bowhunt from.
    Great looking Tom :)

    Congrats on the big tom, Danno!

    Anybody can kill a bow bird out of a blind... But doing it from the ground, out in the open - in THEIR world... now THAT's an accomplishment.

    ...now we need to hear the story behind you and this camouflage golf cart. U lazy schmuck. Does that thing have disabled plates? What the hell is up with the Grandpa Buggy? Is that what they give you when you order the lifetime supply of Geritol?

    Just joshin' ya.

    But I'm serious - killing a tom from the ground, with no blind, has MAXXED OUT YOUR SWAGGOMETER!

    You're going to need to have Mrs. Bloodcrick damp your midsection with a cool rag to keep your muchismo from erupting.

    Kudos to you, buddy. I raise my glass.

    Cheers.

    Thanks again everyone! quicksilver, LMAO, you my friend are one hilarious dude :lol: Now about the buggy, its not mine but the guy leaves it at my house and I have free dibs to ride it anytime for keeping it there. Story goes, last year I pulled in my driveway and a truck pulled in behind me. The guy jokingly said he noticed the Bowtech sticker on my Jeep and rased me about not shooting a Mathews :tu: He introduced himself and the subject got on land around me and Turkey movements and land owners. He is from up North and comes down every year where him and his buddys meet in a Pole barn home hunting shack (you wouldnt believe the place) its amazing. He was hunting Turkeys near me and ask for some helpful info in the bird movements where he was hunting since I see them alot there. I offered what I could, we exchanged phone numbers and keep in contact about the birds. When he left he handed me his buisness card and on the back was some very impressive credentials. Turns out he is a very very very acomplished pro 3-d shooter for Mathews. We became hunting friends and he comes over when he is down in ther area. He brung me and the kids a goody bag this year from all the goodys his sponsers give him. You wouldnt believe all the things he gave us. Muzzy even engraves his name in there broadheads for him, we got three packs of those. He also gave us 3 bottles of scent eliminator spray that has his pic and autograph on them + all kinds of stuff. So any hoo, thats the story on the cart,,,and by the way,,,thats my 7th bird in 5 years WITHOUT a pop up with the Bow ;)
    EDIT: I do NOT ride that cart when hunting, I walk everywhere, it actually makes me mad when some of my buddys ride a quad on the lease to get where there going :rant: I have been screwed up to many times because of that,,,Keep it stealth man!
