When you kill a gobbler with tss.....

Post by dsunday »

....are there alot of 9s in the breast meat? The patterns I've seen are extremely dense in the 20'' ring. Just wondered if you get alot of shot in the rest of the bird. Maybe overthinking things :salute: :scratch:

No but there's a lot of bloody shot that passes into oblivion on the other side of said turkey.

Been quite awhile since I've even seen a hole in the breast, but then again, I shoot for the head only, and usually pretty close.
These TN woods are pretty thick, and shots are usually under 30yds. :mrgreen:

ditto. even with lead #5s I hardly ever have a shot in the breast unless I shoot low.

When the shot is placed right, the meat comes out perfect. Hit low and it will be a mess.
