You arent allowed to leave a 9 year old child to walk around in the first place. He was supposed to be right with the child never leaving his side. How can the kid get between the gobbler and the dad if the dad left the kid and went walking...??? If the dad left the kid at a spot and went stalking a turkey to the north, the kid would be sitting south of the dads position. If the turkey is north of the dad how did the kid get between the dad and the turkey...? that would have been quite a jaunt for the boy. Or did the dad senselessly turn around and stalk on his way back to his son and shot in the direction of his son...? either way the guy has noone to blame but himself.. shoot at turkeys.. not movement.. and this problem would never have occured.. simple as that..
