My First Bow Bird

[sims8ball]

I've been trying to get a bird with the bow for about 4 years now with zero luck, never even had one within range. I have worked quite a few birds this year, but nothing has come all the way in. My buddy said I used all my luck on my deer, I was beginning to believe him!

Yesterday morning I went with a buddy and we had a tom come in and beat up his DSD jake but I couldn't get a shot. This morning I went out with my future brother-in-law (I got engaged last night) to a place that hadn't been hunted yet. I was working a bird behind us when he said there's one over there headed our way. He came in on a string right to his Avian jake decoy and started to circle it, when he got to the other side I stuck him. Went 20 yards and tipped over.

23.25 lbs 10 inch beard both spurs were 1 inch=63.25

Awesome bird. Seems like you see them everywhere, but when you have a bow in hand their nowhere to be seen.
