One more thing to consider....especially if you are planning on a full mount. Once you shoot the bird....get to him ASAP and hold him down to prevent him from flopping around. You need to prevent the damage that can be caused during their death throws.
I shot a turkey several years ago and it did a "bagillion" back flips down a hill before I could get to him. He lost 75% of his tail feathers[

Yeah i typically grab them by the feet right away and hold them in the air stepping on the head while they thrash around with the tail away from me so the breast is towards you. They don't lose any feathers that way. Be careful though cuz one year I took a 1 1/2" spur through my gloves and into my hand between my thumb and finger. Got me good.... Good luck with killin a bird. WCL
