    Nice!

    Oh and I see the pics now.

    As far as fall turkey in PA, they come in Nov 1st so we get 2 weeks when archery and turkey overlaps and then in my area, I get another week that I can use a bow for them but archery for deer is out.

    My 05 Birthday buck I killed from a turkey blind. Cool how that worked out.

    Congrats on the turkey again.

    Thank you guys. We can hunt turkeys and deer here in maine all of october with a bow. We have a ton of turkeys in maine but none the less still hard to kill with a bow.
