It hasn't been mentioned, so I'll tell you that a viable tactic for Fall turkey is to set up a tree stand along a known route they travel.

I know it seems silly, but, with a bow, being above eye level can be quite helpful. I've been busted in a ground blind drawing before, where, in a tree stand, I've gotten to full draw without a problem.

Be sure to actually practice this shot, though. A turkey's kill zone for a bow is small enough broadside, let alone quartering away and above.

Happy hunting.
