saturday i was out small game hunting with my 25# bunny bow, midday i took a break sitting on a rock looked like a nice spot if i was turkey hunting , so i decided to use my turkey call, it was slow, got bored, just calling them in for the fun of it, i had NO intention of actually going for a turkey with a 25# bow, i know its 35# min for turk, i have 60# bow for that, but wanted to spend the day small game hunting with my bunny bow, i did stop myself after a few clucks thinking if a game warden sees/hears me and i am calling a turkey with a 25# bow he will not believe i am just calling them for fun.
can i get written up for that? or do i actually have to take a shot at a turkey for that to be illegal?
i figure its not worth having to explain so wont be be doing that again but am curious on legalities of it

i would think that calling would constitute hunting if you had a bow.

Yeah I think he would write you up for sure.

I'd say it would depend on how you acted and how C. S. he is if or not you got busted. By the letter of the law I'd say you were hunting turkey.I'd let it slide.
