Turkey Season got off to a very Quick Start

My 2008 turkey season got off to a very quick start with Allen Treadwell and Bass Pro’s 100% Real Hunting! I flew in to Kansas City and arrived at 10:30 in the morning. I was picked up by Treadwell and Matt another cameraman for Bass Pro. Once they picked me up we made the 2 hour journey west to Manhattan, Kansas. Gun season was 2 days off, so we were going to try our luck bow hunting for a couple of days. We stopped for lunch and then went into town where we met our Outfitter. He told us he had been seeing plenty of birds so we all got dressed in our Camo and headed for the Turkey woods. Our guide, Jon, set up a ground blind for us and we started to get nestled in at 3:50. It takes a while to get 2 camera guys situated in a ground blind where everyone has plenty of moving room, but we were doing our best to get settled in when Allen wanted to test his slate call. He struck the slate twice when we heard a gobble less than 40 yards from our blind. Matt and I scrambled to make sure the cameras were ready and here come the turkeys. Two hens came into view first and then the gobbler. When Allen saw the gobbler he drew back and let his arrow fly. The arrow found it’s mark and we were all amazed at how fast our 2008 turkey season had gotten started. I looked at my watch just after he shot the turkey and it was 4:12.It only took us 22 minutes from the time we stepped foot into the stand to the time Allen put the turkey on the ground!!!! Simply Amazing
