I'm happy with this shot considering the position I was in.

The turkey is kinda hard to see in the pic. It's behind the stump with some new growth coming off of it. And I stuck a branch I the rotted hole in the middle of the stump.

Good shooting guys. I shot this morning but didnt take a pic of my FS; slipped my mind because I was fiddling around with some 2018's at the time--usually shoot carbons.

I done a 10, 15 and 20 yard walk back today. I think I'm still in the zone but the body and mind sure weren't working together today. 10 red and white, 15 purple and 20 all white. Shooting the BP Silencer. Great day to all.

18 yrds slightly 1/4 away through 3 rows of corn (obstructions). And I was on 1 knee. I hit his chest/neck area and spun him around. I did find my arrow about 5 rows back behind the turkey. 51# Yellowstone Hunter with Herritage 150s with 200gr points. Nice day for shooting in PA.

3 at 15 yards quarting and elevated 15 feet in a ladder stand. Shooting broadheads for the first time since last season.

First shot corkscrewed and went high. Shot that arrow several more times and it did the same thing. Anyhoo shots 2 and 3 flew straight.

PSR 60" 40@28. 600 Centershot carbons with 75gn. brass insert and 135gn. Zwickey's

Have a great evening.

Like 9/10, I shot BH today with full quiver. Quartering shot from 20 yards with 55# Satori, GT 400 with 135 grain Zwickey

Thanks Ronnie. Sometimes I try to make it a realistic hunting shot. That's the same cornfield that a BIG bear came out of 2 years ago while I was shooting at the bag target. He was about 20 to 25 yrds away from me. I was nervous. Thankfully he got tired of listening to me yelling and waiving my arms and bow at him and went back in the cornfield. I think about him all the time when I'm at that club shooting. The neighbor said there was 3 big bears in the area.

Nice shot 1/2mile, but shouldn’t you shoot with one out of your quiver? LOL

Felipe, all those are ready to rock and roll with sharpened BH's (after having been shot and tested of course). I use just one arrow with a BH for target practice ;-)
