I never have, but it is definitely something I've thought about pursuing. I had not heard that wild didn't taste good. I've had store bought I brined and it tasted all right, and a fresh killed free range, also brined and superb, but I had read this year that there's also a "heritage" turkey, which is more expensive, probably because it takes years to mature to the point it can be tablefare, but also more flavorful than the domestic white from the supermarket. It's a breed that resulted from domestic turkeys brought from Europe in the 1600's with wild ones in America.
