Do you all worry a lot if your guns pattern is shooting slightly to left or right? Still getting sot in head and neck area.
Nothing better than turkey huntin

What are you referring to as slightly off?  I don't really worry about it if the spot you aiming at. Is somewhere inside of the 10" circle. But I don't want my pattern to be 3-4"consistently outside the  10"

One like this is ok for me as long as its not much more off.

Now this pattern if I am continuously hitting like this something is wrong. I knew I pulled this one on the shot. I shot a few more times to make sure my sights were right and confirm poi is with poa.

These are my patterns so I'm not picking on anyone but myself.

if I'mshooting at a turkey target paper my pattern which is really tight at 20 is a couple inches left of turkey head.

My POI is maybe an inch to the right of my POA at 10 yards. Out to 40, it is still lethal. This is my 10 yard target:

And this is my 40 yard target:

That pattern looks good.

I would personally find a way to fix my poi to match my poa.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

I want my pattern dead center of poi. No different than a rifle because at 7-8 steps it might as well be.

If it is off that much I would correct it.

Agreed.
I shot 5 extra rounds yesterday moving my POI less than 1.5" to the right.
My OCD's won't let me have it any other way.
