Micro 335 and Turkeys
Next season coming up is turkeys. I just noticed in the Ontario hunting regulations a crossbow must have a minimum "draw length" of 11.8 inches. The micro has a 10 inch draw length. So I guess this rules out using the Micro 335 in Ontario for turkeys. Good thing I have a Matrix 355.

Re: Micro 335 and Turkeys
I believe that this was discussed on here before and the opinion was that the power stroke on the micro is 10" but the draw length is 13.75 " . Power stroke and draw length are different things.
Re: Micro 335 and Turkeys
Yeah because I was trying to make heads or tails of the Ontario hunting regs in regards to crossbow draw length. They explain it but I was a little confused as to how it's exactly measured.

Been out three years in a row, and no bird. First time out I called a bird into 10 yards, took the shot, only to hit my blind and send the arrow off course. Last year I went out sat in my blind an noticed something black the tree 50 yards in from of me. I watched it for about 45 minutes in the twilight. I assumed it was a Porcupine because the property is overrun with them. Soon as it got lighter out I determined it was a turkey. He flew down from roost never to be seen again. When I do get a turkey it will be the most expensive turkey I've eaten (license fees).
Re: Micro 335 and Turkeys
I hear ya. I was thinking of getting a turkey license, but the tags cost 1.5 times the cost of buying a dressed turkey from the market. The clerks at Zhers look real concerned as I walk through the meat section with my crossbow. lol.

Re: Micro 335 and Turkeys
But ya have to admit.......the feathered devils do get the old ticker going when they respond to your call and start coming in. The last one I shot played peek-a-boo with me for about 10 minutes before I put an end to the nonsense with a well placed load from the Remington.
