Anyone have archery success?
Had a couple good spots years back in counties that prohibited Sunday gun hunting. Ran a 50% recovery rate on body shots. 3/6 over several years then gave it up. I used 125 grain wasp jackhammer mechanicals. I think decaps are the best way to go. I did most of my archery hunting without a blind as well. IMG_0167.jpg

Like others have said, it’s a small target.
And with all those feathers there is usually no blood trail.
I’ve found that a broadside shot at the top of the legs through the hips works really well, as they can’t run. And if they can’t run, they also can’t take off.

The three-blade Magnus® BullHead broadheads , these work amazing out of a compound. We practice into a pillow until dialed in. I have not launched them out of a crossbow. And they do completely decapitate a turkeys head. One turkey missed so far over the years but the broadhead hit the blind on the way out
