Yeah, I was using this bow yesterday when I shot under a jake in my back yard. I think the fact that I was standing on my driveway drawing on the gobbler in his full view might have had something to do with it!
That's what happens when you get home from work, look out the window and see a gobbler standing on your drive, run down to the basement and string your bow, and then try to ease out the basement door to get a shot before he gets out of range.
Had this same scenario with a young buck 7-8 years ago, and actually got him with a bow. He just made it out of the yard before he fell. Sometimes you got to take advantage of your opportunities when they present themselves!
Of course I would have preferred to get up at 3:00am, and set in a treestand for hours in the cold first if given the option.
