A load of Hevi-Shot #6's will work every time.

Seriously, there isn't a way. They'll get it as long as it's on the ground.

Although, if you have a turkey problem come spring, I'd be happy to take care of that problem!

Hey Johnnieo, judging by the posts, and the size of the turkey flocks where you are, you need about 47 more volunteers to eliminate your turkey problem!

What about an owl or hawk decoy?
