I've been seeing quite a few Turkeys on my property lately so I decided to turkey hunt this morning instead of deer hunt. I was rewarded with this fine Hen at about 9:55 this morning. Shot out of a ground blind on my own property in my food plot I've worked very hard on !  |

I called with this Poor Valley fall call and had about a 10 yard shot. I talked myself out of using my recurve last night as I wasn't confided enough to make a killing shot on such a small target. Hindsight...it was about a 10 yard shot that I could have made with the recurve. BUT I got the first out of the way and will take my recurve this spring. She only went about 10 yards after the shot and piled up nicely.  |

Woody I had out a single decoy. They came in feeding away from me. I had the Decoy placed so it could be seen all over the plot. I called once when they were in position to see the decoy and they turned and came right to it.  |

I also for the first time shot thru the screen on my blind. Ive never done it before and even though the shot was close I was a little concerned about it causing arrow flight to be off. It didn't effect it what so ever.
