We Were Wrong
In a recent episode, we posed the question: "Is bowhunting turkeys ethical?" Back then, opinions were divided, with the majority still leaning towards the ethical side. However, as we've progressed through this turkey season, we're starting to question our stance. In this episode, we're getting real with you all. We'll break down our turkey hunts from this season and candidly discuss what went wrong. Despite our extensive experience bowhunting turkeys and enjoying significant success in the past, this season has presented challenges. We've faced tough shots and, regrettably, experienced instances where a perfectly placed shot with the bird getting away. So, it brings us back to the fundamental question: Is turkey hunting with a bow truly ethical?
ANNOUNCMENT: Thank you to everyone who sent in their turkey harvest photos from this season! We love seeing you guys out enjoying the hunt, but also seeing your success that comes with it! Congratulations to the winners of the Raised Hunting Turkey fan mounts: Joseph Mains, Travis King, and Jim Holloway!

Opening day of turkey season in Iowa started with a bang. Easton set a goal for the season: to take David on a hunt and call in a bird. The father-son duo accomplished their mission, albeit not without some turkey rodeo action. Meanwhile, Warren headed to a familiar spot, armed with knowledge of patterned birds, and bagged one early.
