Chasing Tom
Been watching a group of Tom's over the last week. Pretty much had them patterned. Decided to take a half day vacation and get out since the fall season opened back up yesterday. Set up on an edge where I had been seeing them move through. I picked out one of the bigger ones. Let the arrow fly. Dropped on the spot. Relieved. 8 1/2 inch beard, 1 inch spurs.

Sweet deal. Good shooting. Those buggers are not easy to draw on!

Re: Chasing Tom
I really had to show control the other night. Had 4 nice gobbies in the plot at 15 yards but passed the shot since it was my last night bow hunting deer. Fortunately it paid off!

Very cool. Nice bird.
You can fool some of the bucks, all of the time, and fool all of the bucks, some of the time, however you certainly can't fool all of the bucks, all of the time.
