After a few close calls with the BIG Boss my season comes to an end with his little brother. 10.5" Beard 7/8" Spurs
The coolest part about this bird is I got him without being in my blind and using my new Magnus Bullhead setup.
Knowing that I had to leave the silent woods around 9 to get to work I decided at 8 to get the camo on and ventured out of the Double bull with the bow, my hen decoy and mouth call.
Leaving behind at the blind is my Full strut and Jake.
Walking slowly about 300 yard down a ridge away from my blind I hear a faint gobble, so I go another 100 yards find a huge Oak to hide behind and set up the hen and wait.
I think OMG they are coming right into bow range….. WRONG a hen totally busted me :rant: and they all take off down the ridge away from me.
All bummed out thinking that the morning is over I walk back around the ridge towards my blind only to see 2 Tom's beating the crap out of my decoys that are 10 yards from my blind.
Now I'm at least 80 yards from them thinking I should have stayed in the blind, I carefully sneak from one Oak to another getting closer and closer until I get within bow range and let the bullhead fly.
Total decap. :yikes:
There is no wondering if you had I good shot or bad shot with this broadhead.
Certainly not text book but it was a pretty exciting morning’s hunt.
I think next year I will be spending a little more time out of the blind after the big one.
