I have done it.....But they bust you way to easy when you are bow hunting out of one. I was deer hunting....all of a sudden, here come some turkeys. Before you know it. I am turkey hunting.

It may work - reason I say so is I see turkeys all the time on my deer stand in the woods and do raise the ole rifle to put a few in crosshairs for fun.
I have had them less than 20 yards from and do know several here have shot a Fall turkey that way while archery deer hunting.
But an elevated stand out in a field one would need to be covered to hide movement as others have told you.

I once set up my climbing stand in an area that turkey chose to roost in that night. They flew up around dusk and landed in the trees all around me. I thought one was going to land in my tree but he flew past. I could have shot one right off a branch about 10 yds away.
I shot a hen in the fall with my bow, as that is legal here. Not really my idea of turkey hunting though.

i hunt turkeys out of a stand during bow gun season because turkey season runs through part of bow season. so i hunt for both turkeys and deer. ive never gotten one though out of a stand
