Full choke, at a minimum. You need to pattern your gun before heading to the woods.
1) To confirm that your shotgun is shooting to your point of aim, and
2) To determine the density of your shot pattern. You may or may not need a tighter choke, or limit your shot distance accordingly.

I would buy a turkey choke and pattern it.Mine shoots 71/2's a little to the right so I have to aim a little to the left.If I shoot 4's it shoots perfect.See how many shot would hit the head area.
