Subject: [CHICKENS-101] Re: Turkey shoots
There's a difference between a hunt and a shoot. Cathryn describes a hunt and we do those too.
A shoot is a formal competition between marksmen and lots of times the turkey wins and gets to go back to the farm where it likely becomes someone's dinner anyway!
Ranges are 50 yards or more. Rules are rifle or musket, flint or percussion (usually separate divisions), offhand only, iron sights only, 1 turn per entry fee, 1 round per turn and the turkey walks when 5 shooters in a row miss him which is a frequent occurrence.
The proceeds from the shoot usually go to some worthy cause.
