Re: eating fresh wild turkey
baltz526, how was the dark meat? I found mine ever so slightly gamey-tasting - - - - but, my brother said he couldn't detect any gaminess.
You've probably seen this. If not, here's a link to my thread wherein I comment re cooking/taste of my bird. http://www.ifish.net/board/showthread.php?t=149913

Re: eating fresh wild turkey
I had my 3 smoked as well as my step son's 3. We got the one back from the youth hunt and it is very tasty. A bit dry and salty on the thinner parts, but still a nice treat.
