>>499451>Anyways, you hunt turkey with a 12 or 20 gauge?You want to hunt turkey with a 12 gauge. The reason why is that you shoot the turkey in the head and you can shoot them up to distances of 40 yards (though you can get a 50 yard shot), so you want a very large and very dense pattern with a full or extra full choke. In fact, using a 12gauge 3 1/2" turkey load is getting pretty close to the shot weight of a 10 gauge shot weight. It's fine if your shotgun can't take 3 1/2", just get some Remington Nitro 3" turkey load. Important thing is your choke is tight and you know your pattern.
>Here in Canada you can also hunt them with a crossbowYou can use a guillotine to take a similar approach as you would with a shotgun to decapitate them

Also you don't want the bolt to go straight through the body with a really high poundage crossbow or bow -- you want the arrow or bolt to stop
>>499451>Do I necessarily need to get plastic decoys?Plastic, foam, whatever.
