My back yard

Sometimes living in Ramona can be really cool.
I heard some "noise" out back and sure enough there are at least 10 turkeys hanging out in my back yard.

But I can't help but wonder, could I invite one to dinner from my own back yard or are there still rules that I am just not seeing?
 
Ramona is pretty cool i had a flock of toms behind my house during turkey season last spring ive seen deer behind my house also

If you have the 150 yard clearance from your neighbors I would say have at em. If not go get permission from the neighbors.
 
Well if I shoot to the right [in the picture] it is all 'open space' so there is more then 150 yards, but I don't have the "circular" clearance, or do I only need it in then the direction I would be shoot [with a bow]?

Either way, I may use this as an opportunity to meet the neighbors since I just moved in a couple months ago.
 
"DISCHARGING FIREARMS OR OTHER DEADLY WEAPONS : It is unlawful for any person, other than the owner, person in possession of the premises, or a person having the express permission of the owner or person in possession of the premises, to hunt or to discharge while hunting, any firearm or other deadly weapon within 150 yards of any occupied dwelling house, residence, or other building or any barn or other outbuilding used in connection therewith. The 150-yard area is a “safety zone.” It is unlawful for any person to intentionally discharge any firearm or release any arrow or crossbow bolt over or across any public road or way open to the public, in an unsafe manner. (FGC 3004)PUBLIC ROAD OR OTHER PUBLIC AREA."
This includes your own home, I believe, and yes it is a circular 150 yard radius from the firearm.
I copied this straight out of the 2009 Hunting Regulations Booklet.
 
Affirmative, air rifles are not firearms. Nice and quiet, and legal as long as the projectile doesn't escape your property.
Does anyone know if those .45 cal air rifles would be legal in this case? I don't think a .22 will kill a turkey unless you hit it in its pea-sized brain.
???
 
.25 cal Benjamin marauder will do the job! 5 shot groups in a quarter at 50 yards and I'm not even a good shot lol
 
And I just happen to have both a .25 and .22. And a .22 will take one out, but as you mentioned you have to aim for the head which is easy up to 75 yards with either of them.
