Question if you are serious. I hear wild turkeys don't taste as good. What are your experiences? - Bacon Nov 16, 16:13 10
- They're gamier obviously. I kind of just want to say that they're meatier. More substantial. Like, for stew? -- nm - Amanda Nov 16, 16:23
- I ask because I have always wanted to shoot one for Thanksgiving. Kind of a bucket list item of mine -- nm - Bacon Nov 16, 16:14 8
  - apparently they're actually quite hard to hunt. -- nm - mafic Nov 16, 16:16 7
    - Pshaw. You come visit me; my friends will show you how it's done. - Amanda Nov 16, 16:22 2
      - this was always surprising to me. they don't seem very smart. -- nm - mafic Nov 16, 16:25
      - I always have a beard, as I live in Oregon. -- nm - Bacon Nov 16, 16:22
    - I have heard they will attack you. A guy I knew that hunted turkeys said you make a female turkey noise and blast the horny toms when they show up - Bacon Nov 16, 16:18 3
      - poor horny turkeys. -- nm - mafic Nov 16, 16:25
      - This is true if you spook them. -- nm - Amanda Nov 16, 16:22
      - the girl I used to work with who would shoot her own every year said they are stupid and will walk closer to you to give you a better shot -- nm - dogbert Nov 16, 16:20
