I've been on my current deer lease in the Hill Country of Texas for 12 years. This is the first time I've had turkeys get within range. Got two on 11/12 Saturday morning hunt and one more that afternoon. All tagged at between 75 and 125 yards with my deer rifle, a Remington 700 in 7mm-08.

Currently have breasts marinating for dinner this evening.

The marinated turkey was delicious. The marinade was made with honey, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder and seasoned salt. A recipe my son found on the internet. First time cooking wild turkey and I think we overcooked just a little, but still very tasty.

I got one more on 11/19, so I've now used all four of my turkey tags for the year.
