Trying to get my first bird, what gun should I use?

I'm going turkey huntin to get my first bird opening morning, I've been plenty of times, but just haven't taken a gun, I've always been the tag along. I'm a girl, and a little scared to shoot a 12 gauge with turkey shot, I've seen my boyfriend shoot it, just practicing, and it bout knocks him in the dirt, so I'm thinkin about shootin my 20 gauge, with turkey shot, but do I really need a new choke? If so what do you recommend?

you don't NEED a new choke. But if you don't get one, you better get him in REAL close before you shoot.

A 20ga is going to make it tougher than with a 12 and then anything but a full or tighter choke is going to make it even that much tougher.

It's doable. Just make sure he's close (like 25 yards or less if you ask me).
