If I wanted wild turkey, I wouldn't have to shoot one--all I'd have to do is set a snare in my back yard 
Problem is, they've been there since March and at this point, it'd be like eating one of my pets. We've been watching the chicks grow since they were little featherballs. |

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.
