Okay, I'm not at all happy with how recent turkey killing has gone. With a hatchet, it takes a couple or three whacks for a big turk to kill it, which causes extra pain. For slitting, I think I am cutting in the wrong place, because it seems to take forever to die. I have taken up Jaku's practice of giving a good whack with a pipe in order to stun, but even that doesn't keep them out long enough.
I seem to recall someone mentioning there is a specific spot to slit for a fairly quick kill. Could someone please tell me where that is? Is there a video or maybe some pics somewhere showing the exact spot? I did find the following vid, but it is for chickens. Is it the same for turkeys?
Quick assistance would be appreciated. As usual, I am seeking last minute advice, as the deed is set for tomorrow.
Thanks.
