Killing a turkey
 
So, lets say you shoot a turkey and you paralize him. how do you kill him? Shoot him again, chop is head off, or wait for him to die or what?

I'd take a firm hold on his head and give him the volcan death grip (aka broken neck). Don't go overboard. I did on a grouse last fall and broke his head off. It didn't matter with the grouse but witha turket that has to be registered they might get upset.

Twist like a cap on a soda bottle or bend like your breaking a stick?

Well grab the neck and snap the wrist like a you'd crack a whip.

It dosn't have to be a powerful motion. Just a quick snap!

i just shoot em again, i shot one about 3ft away and put a perfect hole through his head, i though it would blow clean off, but it didnt it had a tight pattern and put a hole right through him.
