I shot my first Turkey last month just in time for Thanksgiving. I also shot a skunk that was acting rabid this summer. I don't bow hunt but my hubby does :)
Nice, Laura! That would be awesome to hunt a thanksgiving turkey! Do you use those arrows with the long prongs that be-head the turkey? Is that a common thing? Lol, I saw a youtube video of people bowhunting turkeys with those.
Haha I've heard of those beheading tips for arrows but I don't bow hunt so I've never used one. However, I did shoot my turkey in the head. Didn't behead it though.. I used a .22 rifle and dropped it. Didn't damage any of the meat :) Tasted purdy darned good too!
Btw, I love the idea of mounted archery! There's a couple of little boys that have a ton of videos on youtube of them doing it! Insane! Riding their little horses over jumps and shooting at targets!
Here's one of the videos.
That's an awesome video! I thought I had seen all the mounted archery videos on youtube, haha. Here's a couple pics of my bow and arrows.
Theres a lady named Katie Stearns who teaches mounted archery. She's having a clinic in the bay area (California) in March if anyone is interested. I wish I could go. Don't think I'll be able to afford it though. It's $100 a day for 3 days. It would totally be worth it if I had the money.
I hunt, both rifle and bow. My family owns just over 5000 acres of trophy managed hunting land in Georgia. We hunt white tail, turkey, wild hog, bear, water fowl.. really just about anything in season. I shoot a Diamond Razor Edge and Mayhem Hot Pursuit carbon express arrows. I love hunting with my bow, actually planning to do a good bit of hunting this week while I'm home for Christmas.
