    Default Bow Turkey Hunting

    Hey y'all.

    So I'm planning on turkey hunting this fall with a bow. I've been looking around at stuff, but do you guys all recommend? Also, any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

    What kinds of calls/decoys do you guys recommend? Any other things I should know about turkey hunting?

    Since you are new at this I would start with a box call.

    It's a lot easier with a "tent blind" such as a Double Bull or a blind of your choice. Decoys are not that important as long as they look real. I do not like those "shiny hard plastic" decoys so I go with those soft collapsable foam types. Any broadhead as long as you hit the kill zone.

    good luck to all
