I’ve never done Cocaine but holy cow it can not beat the rush of having a Turkey gobbling and then coming in full strut. I couldn’t seal the deal but man is it fun.

I was beating myself up pretty bad about missing but that’s the first Turkey I’ve ever called up and shot at. And it was my first time hunting by myself. I was also using a crossbow, I’ll have a gun in my hands next time I go. I just couldn’t use a gun on the property I was on today.

We watched a YouTube video last night of a MMA fighter killing his first turkey. He said that rush was like fighting , but even better. I know one thing, I do NOT want to be in a fight with a guy that gets a rush even remotely similar to what you get from a gobbling turkey. Lol.

For a beginner - the cross bow a big hurdle - you will be super excited - need more than an arrow

It happens. One of my first gobblers i called in as a young tennager - i was so enamored with making him gobble - when it came time - i did not hav my gun up - was so excited i forgot the most important part - i was still Holding my box call - i wanted to make him gobble one last time when he went behind that last tree and i did - he got away 😀 felt like somebody had jabbed a knife in me it hurt so bad and i felt like an idiot which i was!!!


Hunt the wind - leave it better than you found it - love your neighbor as you love your self

Congrats on the experience but a crossbow? SMDH. Inquiring minds gotta know…why?

You have already said too much. The only reasonable answer for public land turkeys is " they don't exist".
