I just booked a hunt for about 8 0f us to go to Kansas Turkey hunting.  3 of us are taking our kids.  My kids is only 11 and this will be his first real hunt.  I don't know a thing about Turkey hunting but I have a youth 20 gauge for him and just need to know what kind of shot size or loads guys use for Turkey?  Any suggestions?  Any other tips as well?  We will be fully guided so all I need to do is get the kids shooting and teach him how to shoot sitting down I guess and the rest is up to the guide. 

Thanks for the info guys.  I think the best is to shoot a few loads and find out what groups the best and get a tight choke tube.  I just wondered if there was anything else I was missing?  I have been told #4 and #5's and a tight pattern.  I think I should get the kid out shooting a lot till we leave as well and see if he can handle the 12 but he is a small kid. 

If you want in Darren give Dean an E-mail in the next day or 2 at the most here so he can get it figured out with the outfitter.  I think there are 9 of us going with 3 kids.  Dates are the 11 and 12 of May.  Rob and Daryl and Jamie are going as well. 

Just talked to the outfitter a bit.  He said he has guns there for us.  A nice little Beretta will make it a little easier on his shoulder.  I think the key will be to practice lots before we go so he gets used to shooting.  Good idea on the Turkey targets Travis.  Do you want to come on the trip as well and bring Jarret?
