I don't think I've ever bought a turkey. My wife does that.
Running with the axe. Smart.

They don't chase you if you take a 12 gauge instead of an axe.

Mnnnn... would you like a little lead with your dark meat?

Biting down on then spitting out the shotgun pellets is part of the tradition of eating meat you hunted yourself.
Swallowing one or two tiny little lead balls wont hurt anything.Turkey hunting uses larger shot than other birds so its much easier to find and remove the pellets.

A head shot doesn't leave lead in the meat. I never eat the head.

My turkeys are raised and purchased less than a mile from my place. Not only Made in the USA, but I can see the production line and employees too.

Like most of modern suburbia, the city I live is was open farm land until sometime after WWII. Well, one farmer raised turkeys. As suburbia most his way, he sold off his fields, but kept several acres that were fenced for his yearly flock of turkeys.

The only decent meat Ive ever seen in a wild turkey was the breast, the rest of its tough as hell, very unlike the fat farm-raised turkeys where you can eat dam near everything.
And for the record, you dont need a license to get a turkey if you hit it with a four-wheeler.
