[QUOTE="Andy S., post: 4598533, member: 131"] I have to ask, why is a kid shooting a tight pattern? In my opinion, that is setting them up for failure before they ever get started. Tight patterns cause misses daily, with the most experienced turkey hunters. In my opinion, no kid should be shooting much over 35-40 yards, and a full choke, or slightly tighter will be more than enough with the right ammunition. Good luck with your choice of optics, but my advice is to loosen the constriction up on the choke and give the kid more forgiveness, while still being adequate to humanely kill the turkey. [/QUOTE]
