Ground Blind, Patience and put your decoys 5 to 7 yards from your blind.
If your going to shoot them in the body use a big diameter expandable and shoot them in the wing spectrum broadside, spine facing away and I am not a big fan of the frontal shot with out a head cutter broadhead. I haven't lost a bird shooting them in the wing spectrum.

Well, he's hunting with me but he will need the HS cert sooner or later (he's 17). Plus, Mom sez..........:grin:

I completely agree with limb chicken, but I use muzzy 3 blades. Like he said, I wont take frontal shots into the breast. I use an old mounted full strut gobbler that gets destroyed every season, but a little more wire and he is still holding up. More times than not any gobbler that sees him attacks from the start of youth season untill the end of the fourth season. Personally I like the early part of the season best for my kids, but arrowed a 4 bearded tom the last week of last year.

For you archery turkey guys, I've got a few questions
I've heard you have to turn the poundage down due to the fact that blowing through them isn't a good thing because if they do run off blood trail is almost nothing. Also I've heard so many do's and don't on what types of broadheads to shoot whether expandables or fixed. Any imput guys would be great, I've always just used a gun but this year I really wanna give the bow a try and I've got so many people that wanna go that I figure it would allow us to take multiple turkeys in one day if the first one is done with a bow (little sound after the shot hopefully not alerting they entire woods of our presence)
Also I'm a huge run and gunner and hate sitting in ground blind whether late muzz shotgun or deer bow season. So is it realistic to get it done without a blind and a bow during turkey season. Thanks for any imput guys

Use the same set up as whitetails, big expandable and blow a hole through em or chop off the head. You can make it happen without a blind but the difficulty increases exponentially. :way:
