Awesome.
I had some within range today but the woods were far too thick to get a clear shot. I snuck up on them after they originally walked up to me and busted me when I drew my bow. Through the undergrowth they were drilling me with their eyesight while I did my best to hold completely still. I got away without getting busted but was not able to take a shot.
Glad you got one, you should be eating good. i would love to hear a gobble in the fall.

Catman, I've had them bust me when I blinked. Their eyes are just that good.
I'm too noisey to sneak up on a turkey. I got lucky on this one as there was literally a 4" wide window to shoot through in the brush. I could clearly see them coming but there were so many small twigs sticking up, anyone of them would have caught the broadhead.
I've been smoking the turkey breast. Probably the best tasting meat ever.

yes turkeys can see like hawks and for a while I was getting stared down through the bushes but sat still enough they quietly moved on before I saw them out in the field.
