Hunted the general over the counter Turkey hunt again this year, and was able to tie my tag on one this time. Hunted this bird hard for almost 2 weeks. I was getting up at 4:00am to get there and find where he was roosted, got him to come in on the second day of the hunt only to miss him twice with my bow. (always check your equipment to see that you have adjusted your slider sight back). Many times he would come in but just not close enough for a shot. The last time he skirted my setup and was just over a rise, I snuck up over the rise with my decoy in hand and caught him off guard. One shot and I had my first turkey. Thank goodness for my Core4element in Mountain Mimicry being at 8500ft in the Uintah's the morning were cold and the afternoons were warm. Being able to layer and blend in to my surroundings was crucial on this hunt.
