A friend had me over for some wild turkey that he shot. First of all they are nothing like a butterball. There isn't a whole lot of meat on them. He had stripped the meat and cut it into strips which he had seasoned and cooked on the grill. I thought it was pretty good but it was nothing like a

Yeah, that was my point. I’ve seen the results of wild turkey as a food source, and I wasn’t impressed. I would just as well get a fresh one from my butcher and let the wild ones run wild. They’re pretty cool to see in the woods. Kind of like grouse. Cool to watch, never understood the

I think it is not impossible to do but you would need to work out the process. I think vacuum bagging it down is a good idea. Pieces can curve on one axis but not two; veneer doesnt do that very well. Violins etc seem to be carved. Not sure if they get veneered after. Can ask my friend Ken;
