Serious question- recoil reduction
Hello all, I'm 52 and I've been wanting to go turkey hunting and just purchased a mossberg 835 ulti mag(28"bbl) and a truglo gobbler stopper extreme choke tube.....I have not shot the gun yet as I do have a problem that I could sure use your help with......my neck has been broken 3 times, with the last break left un-repaired by surgery due to the extent of the damage, these were all done in 2000, I can walk and use my extremities like normal, but the recoil from a heavy caliber gun, and a shotgun leaves me in pain for a few days afterwards, I just ordered a Blackhawk compstock for the 835 in hopes of reducing the felt recoil to a manageable level, and I'm wondering if any of you have any suggestions as to turkey loads and maybe even some more recoil reduction Ideas for my turkey season......this will be my first year turkey hunting, but I sure don't want it to be my last....if it works out I'll also be purchasing a rifled cantalever bbl for deer season too..now I've tried semi autos and different styles of shotguns but have never found any multi purpose shotguns I could deal with for an extended period, and I'm really tired of playing musical guns, I just want one that I can use for Deer,Turkey and maybe waterfowl too........Thank you, Steve
