Deer hunting turned into turkey run-'n-gun

[BluegrassDan]

So my day quickly changed from sitting and waiting for deer to running around like a madman trying to kill a turkey. Finally ambushed a few big toms. Bolt passed through, lots of damage, but the bird flew across a huge holler and I never could find it. Kinda bummed, but it made for an exciting opening day.

I didn't know season was open, for some reason i thought it was in october. Wish I would have known I I would have turkey jerky!

you can kill your county's fall bag limit with a bow during deer archery-only season.

Sorry you lost the bird, sounds like a fun hunt though. If turkeys come my way before deer tomorrow, I will definitely be on to them as I will kill any turkey legal except for poults.
