And though you have knocked him over be ready with your gun for a possible second shot...keep it on him....when walking up to the bird....don't run remember that is a loaded gun...do watch the turkey.....if he is flopping and his head and neck look like a rubber band flopping around - his neck is broken........but if if ya just grazed him and he is laying there with neck outstretched take notice where his legs are....if laying on his side - okay--but tucked under him he could launch hisself faster than you can blink an eye. If his eyes are blinking with outstreacthed neck whack him again......I didn't and lost a bird this way.....a long long time ago....
