I try to do 30 yards and less on turkeys with bow.  What ranges do you shoot turkeys with bow?

all of my archery kills have been 10 - 15 yards. Its a function of decoy placement for me.

I'm still pretty new to archery turkey hunting, but I don't think I would shoot past 20. My only bird by bow was at 8 yards.

I try to shoot between 10 and 15 yards.  As stated above its about the decoy placement.  They are tough to put down straight.  Used the large Rage 2 blade expandables for the last two years, going with a Magnus Bullhead set-up this year.  Tired of chasing them.

My only bow bird was with a bullhead last year.  Nearly decapitated him, they do not go anywhere when their head is all but gone.
