Turkey hunters

3TOE · Feb 13, 2020

What is your preferred weapon for chasing turkey? I’ve personally hunted with a bow & shotgun. Hands down I will grab one of my O/U’s unless I’m hunting with someone else. For the past few years that I’ve hunted with a friend, we alternate between a bow & shotgun.
Post up some pics of your weapon of choice.

Crossbow, used to hunt them with a shotgun but it's been awhile.

That’s pretty sweet man! I haven’t ever personally ran into a turkey hunter carrying a crossbow.

I seem to always grab the shotgun. I need to kill one with a bow but tend to just grab my shotgun and focus on calling as that was first real passion. Here are some photos of just a few of my past turkey hunts. I have many more, but the Ocellated Turkey From the Yucatan Peninsula (pictured below) is by far my most memorable turkey hunt of my life! That is closely followed by guiding my wife to her first turkey and seeing her learn to love it. One of pictures below you'll see where we killed 4 birds all on different setups and all by 8:30 in the morning. It was a crazy day of turkey hunting.

It looks like you have the turkey bug as bad as I do.
I wish I could get my wife into hunting, it’s just not her thing.
That Osellated turkey is awesome! I can’t believe the spurs on that thing. Very cool!!!
