Yeah, thanks for sharing that... I was told to try and break the pelvis, I guess figuring if it can't walk, you can get to it for a kill. This makes more sense and is easier to visualize especially on a strutting bird when the wings cover the feet and you have to guess where the pelvis is! (Wondering what Xbow broadhead size y'all use for head shots)?

Great vid...

If you shoot them through the drumsticks the can not run , therefor can't fly !

Nice video.

There's a saying for them it goes:

Hit 'em high watch 'em die,
Hit 'em low watch 'em go.

For many new to bow and turkeys that big breast area looks like it should be it. Hard not to be drawn to it. This is from too many deer shots and mammal kills. A turkey it just isn't there. That's why I shoot the biggest broadhead that flies well out of my xbow. ( 2.75 cut) Your shot can be off but it will make the kill.
Joke of the week.............

"A couple of years ago I didn't even know what a xbow was - now I'm a consultant ! "
