Bowhunting turkey's

I would like to take a shot at turkey hunting with my bow this year. This may be a stupid question but when using a bow, where do you shoot the turkey at? Shot placement I mean.

Not necessarily the right answer. The turkey I took on film in KS I shot through the back and into the heart. What if they were facing you?

The wings also encompass more area than just the vital area.....
