Post by: John K on April 26, 2010, 04:56:59 pm

Well i finally get to post a picture of a kill  :) 17# jake, shot with my ERC, Cedar shaft and 2 blade Zwickey. Had 2 jakes come in on 4-21-10 @ 6:20 am. Only 1 left  ;D 8 yard shot. Not the biggest bird, but a trophy in my book !

Was looking at those funny arrows you make...ya forgot the broadhead on one and the fletching on the other!   Awful short arrows, too.   >:D

Got a fall season?  I'm sure there isn't much turkey meat left by now, time for another?

  GOOD  JOB!!!!!   I  hope  that  you  were  using  that  wing  bone  call  as  well   cause  you  Da'  Man   JEFFW

Title: Re: I finally get to post !
Post by: John K on September 27, 2010, 04:00:06 pm

Postman, Thanks !

Thanks swamp yeti

JW, We have a fall season, but i didn't put in for a tag, never had any luck with Turkeys in the Fall

Thanks Jeff, yes i called it in with the wing bone yelper i made !

Hope to post a picture soon of me and a deer  ;D

Title: Re: I finally get to post !
Post by: JW_Halverson on September 27, 2010, 09:50:44 pm

Wingbone calls are the best, especially young of the year jakes taken in the fall.  9-12 lbs of delish birdy and two sets of bones for making calls!

Post by: stickbender on October 07, 2010, 01:43:25 am

     John, that is a nice one for sure!  Too bad about the arrow, but at least you have lots of mighty fine fletching to put on that short arrow now. ;D ;D......got a cross bow?  ::)

Title: Re: I finally get to post !
Post by: John K on October 07, 2010, 12:32:25 pm

Thanks, Wayne, no crossbow, but i have been thinking about making one.....I don't mind when an arrow breaks exspecially when i get a critter with one  ;D

Title: Re: I finally get to post !
Post by: JW_Halverson on October 12, 2010, 12:18:31 am

Best way ever invented for breaking an arrow.
