We will probably give it a go!  All I need to do is make some rock proof arrows!  Or some paper wrapped shot loads for my .58 cal rifle!  Haven't heard anything from JW about the Black Hills Turkey Camp yet!

Always! Hopefully Florida, Tennessee, and South Carolina. I'll be trying out the new Smoothbore this year.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I’ll be sticking around Michigan, but planning on chasing birds with the bow again. Still haven’t connected with the bow.

Eddie, loose anymore calls in those Florida woods lately? ;) I think it’s time for a new one.

I will be chasing turkeys around Minnesota with a self bow.  I haven't connected on a turkey with a bow yet so I am hoping this is the year.

Dave, I lost the one I got from you at Pappy's. But you are right, it's time for a new one.

Its been a few springs since I was able to turkey hunt, hoping to get out this spring. I love chasing Michigan birds.

I think I am going. At least we should be home by then . Self bow and stone points for me.

Eddie, I’ll have a new website up soon for the turkey calls, but you can always just send me a message when you want one.

Chris, I hope you can make it out this year. I’ve only missed one spring season in almost 20 years and drove me crazy

Rob, I have one trip planed for the fall. I’m trying to fit in a second, and if I can, I’ll be heading your way.
