I sit next to a tree in the woods and call them in with a turkey caller. It's a slate and stick. Rubbing them together makes a Hen turkey sound. Then when they are within range I shoot them with a shotgun.

This elder in my hall (who hunts) married a sister from upstate NY (where hunting is really big). He went up early this past winter and said he got a wild turkey and his fiance (wife now), she and her mother cooked it for dinner.

so if you're hunting turkeys with a shotgun, is it still called buckshot? or do you call it like gobblershot?

There are different types of shells depending on the game animal. Buckshot is a larger pellet than Birdshot. Obviously it takes less oomph to knock down a bird. Although w/ Turkeys you have to hit the head. The quills are very tough. Unless you are right on top of the bird, the shot will bounce off.
