If I' m not mistaken, this subject went round and round last year.
Legality of this situation doesn' t hold much water with me. If you need a bird that bad go buy a Butterball at a store. Filling a tag is not what Turkey... or any other hunting is about.

I' m sure I' ll get beat-up pretty good for these comments, but I really don' t care. Everyone needs to develope a set of ethics along with following local game laws.
My ethics include not shooting them off the roost.
