I see we haven't had many new post so I decided to make one. Please tell what your favorite Turkey load and Choke tube is and why. Looking for some good conversation. If you only Bow hunt please tell me your set up.

Wrist rocket loaded with a ball out of the wheel bearing on the driver side of a blue 2.8 liter V6 1984 Chevrolet blazer.
Or a 3” loaded with 2oz of tss 8.5’s out of a sumtoy buckwild simply because I’ve killed half a hundred with it.

Zip gun made with black iron pipe and a 2x6 whittled down for the stock, a BB for a firing pin. I am shooting a low pressure tss duck load. Gotta keep the pressure down cause the pipe will rupture above 10,000 PSI.
No choke and no chamber, so I need him pretty close, but I love the challenge.
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.

I shot hal’s 1 5/8 oz big 20 XL load ever since 2012 I think. Finally swapped over late this season and tried his MOA 20. It’s overkill but it’s fun to shoot.
I’ve been fooling with an el cheapo Turkish made over and under and I’m really pleased with it. Factory modified choke and the 1 5/8 oz TSS 9 in the top barrel...... Indian Creek .562 with 2 1/8 TSS 8X9 in the bottom barrel.
