    Most people I know that hunt turkeys head shoot them with a turkey load from a shotgun at 25 or 30 yards, Jerome. Not that there's anything wrong with your diagram, it's just the most common method of taking them that I'm aware here in Iowa.

    Thanks stew31r! I added to the Turkey's image the head shot, it does make sense!

    Body shots work, but the first shot that I've let off at one the two times I've hunted them and the first shot my friends fire is always at the head
