Around 20 yards for most. Closest was 5 yards, and furthest was 54 yards by accident, but I killed him.

Mine average about 35 yards. I hunt big timber so anything closer is an exception.

I don't step off many of them but I'd say about 30 yards would be average.

Once I know there inside 40 there dead, or least I hope for them to be. I always try to set up where I have at most a 30 yard shot.

Never really kept track by average. Closest was probably 6-7 yards and longest pushed 40 yards. Ideally, I like them to be in the 25-35 yard range. No turkey can walk though my gun's pattern at those distances and there is less likelihood of shooter error as is possible with real close in shots.

My closest was around 5-6', farthest probably 35 yards, probably 20-25 average.
