Im already excited i have only whent turkey hunting one time with a gun a cupple years ago, now i wanna try it with a bow and try and put my gf on a turkey. when i whent a few years back i had a guy do all the callin for me so if yall have any tips that would be great! also what kinda broadheads do yall shoot for turkeys? will my regular deer broadheads work? i shoot rage 3 blade (dont hate on me too much) i think i might get a blind this weekend if they have any on sale at gander mt. i have a box call and a mouth call im getting pretty good at so maybe i can get it done this spring, thanks!
I use my same set up for turkey hunting as i do deer hunting. Only thing i change on my set up is i go from a rage 2 blade to a 3 blade being the fact you get more of a chunk not a sliver like t- bone says on the G5 commercial, i also do that because i shoot for wadles and up only. But when bow hunting for turkeys a blind is much need to help better your odds of not being caught while drawing your bow back, you can do it with out a blind but it is much harder. Just keep working on the mouth call and you will get there i was able to pick it up pretty quick.
Got my turkey permit today. Will be my daughter's first turkey hunt, so will be with a gun for her, but hoping I can lure another Tom in for my bow. New blind and decoys waiting for Spring!
I am in the same boat as you haven't gone turkey hunting a whole lot the last couple years last I went my friend did the calling. I have been working on my calling because I plan to get my gf on her first bird this year and hopefully get my first with my bow. I just recently purchased peepn Tom and pretty penny decoys for 56 dollars on amazon. Have to get my blind out and make sure two peoe can fit comfortably in it. I had bought some kind of backer that goes behind a broadhead a few years ago but I have yet to use it on a bird does a number on a target though...yikes. I am using the trusty ol thunderheads going to be switching to something different next fall. Good luck turkey hunting this spring and keep us all posted
i caant decide if i wanna use my 3 blade rage or try a fan blade looking broad head with 3+ inches of cut and go for a head shot
I've got a couple killzones I used on does this year that are still in working order, I'm hoping to punch those through a couple Kansas long beards this spring. My wife got me a barronett grounder 350 blind for my birthday, so maybe with a lil calling or good decoy setup I can lure a Tom in to getting whacked on video. I can't wait for April to chase these birds around.
boy i cant wait either,the weather here in fl. has been to good latrly, gobblers will start early this year i am afraid.but still looking for a good season.
