Shot a doe in 2001 at about 12 yrds she was doing full speed and when we skinned her out two shots could be covered by a quarter just behind the shoulder. Luck or marksmanship? I say luck.

With what I saw this turkey season with respect to deer I will be hunting from the ground just as I was turkey hunting the deer tolerated a lot of movement, even waving at them to get them out of there before the turkey's woke up.

I have also heard that the vitals are further back than on a deer.
Might be a good idea to research this to be sure or check in with the guide service your going to use.

Good Luck and shoot straight

When I looked into this awhile ago you can have two firearms out but only one uncased and loaded.This info was not from MNR just another hunter to be sure call and ask directly not worth the hassle of getting pinched for something you thought was OK.
