    I personally LOVE turkey hunting, but we can only do so in a very short window and believe it or not, they get very wily and hard to bring into range (can only shoot them with shotguns or bows here). Agree with everyone about the flavour—absolutely splendid. If anyone needs recipes for cooking the legs, which taste great but can be tough as cordwood, PM me. As for the contention that they're no good for sport, you ought to try calling them in the spring. Damn good time. Really hope I get the chance to chase the big chickens when I'm out there.
    Your right...chase them a few times they cotton on to bipedal beings with a long pointy thing...,

    I think that goes for most animals. Even much derided goats can be spooky when under a lot of pressure.
