Well, I wish I could report a bird down, but my normal happened again with the turkeys. Hunter texted me that 2 big birds just walked passed her without giving her a look and was in a hurry to get to me. 15 minutes later, they silently came in and I waited for the biggest bearded one to give me that shot you want. I have a love hate relationship with turkeys. I love to hunt them, but I hate shooting at them because it don't always work out for me. I settled my pin up the leg with the bird being at attention. I squeezed the release, and watched the arrow fly right under him. I could not believe I did it again. After trying to figure out what happened, I could feel a little pain on my knee. I wasn't paying attention and had my leg in the way and when I released, the cam hit my knee causing the arrow to go low. The birds jumped up, and just walked off with out a worry.
Well, even with no turkeys bagged, it still was a great weekend spending it with Hunter.
