I put down a nice doe with mine today. 78 yards and drt. The impact knocked her right off of her feet. You have to love meet in the freezer.

hate to sound like an activist, but please don't use turtles as target practice.  i know they all look the same, but many map turtles are becoming rare and the leading cause is polution and "sportsman" using them as target practice while they are sunning.  also, they take along time to reach reproductive age.  something like 7-10 years.

Dont know about a map turtle Is it a turtle or tarapin? This are snapping turtles on my pond. Definately not endangered. And Im tired of losing my fish on the trot line to the hungry boogers. P.S. if they are endangered Ill provide starter pairs to anyone needing them

that's cool.  map turtles are generally in rivers and no mistaking them for snapping turtles.
