Turkey time

Post by Carnivorous »

Ontario Turkey season opens this Wesnesday.

All dialed in with the Magnus bullheads. :)

Good luck to all in pursuit of the majestic birds.

A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

After 20 yards the groups open up. I set the decoys out to 10 yards and wait for that up close and personal shot... :)

I cocked it around 20 times today. Surprisingly it's not that bad. I think the strength training is paying off... lol

Don`t forget the adjustable stock to accommodate the changing amount of clothes required to hunt during the season . :)

Good luck hunting, with that Magnus head looks like you will end up with diced turkey if you get a shot :)

I'm using the 100grains. I'm going to try the 125's the blades are longer and more forgiving.. Lol

I tried them with my faster shooting Scorpyd. I couldn't get them to group with it. I think the faster bow isn't ideal for the magnus bullheads....

you are correct, the slower the better for the big one. I had to go with a 5" off set feather and the spinning insert to get mine to fly out of my 335 micro. using carrots for targets makes it a lot of fun and you can see just how they work. have a good time hunting and good luck. :clap:
