okiebuck Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 I was mowing Saturday morning, turned the mower off to fill it up and heard a tom gobbling just west of me. I grabbed my slate and my new bow and headed a little closer to where he was calling. I called for about 10-15 minutes and brought him in around 40 yards. I didnt range him because I was in too big of a hurry to get down there and left my rangefinder behind, so this was just by sight. I set my single pin sight at 35 yards, and put an arrow right through this toms head! I know it sounds like BS, but it really happened! Probably couldnt do it again, but gosh it was amazing! The arrow went straight thru his head and kept going so I thought I missed for a split second, then the bird just dropped! I will never forget this day as long as I live. Here are a couple pics...

Hope you find your arrow. Thanks. I found the arrow about 20 yards straight behind the turkey, pretty deep in the ground. It is still in good enough shape to shoot again!
