Shot placement with bow

Does anyone have pictures of the best shot placement for bowhunting turkeys? I remember seeing one last season, but can't remember where I saw it

My first year turkey hunting with the bow I looked and looked for info on this. Could not find it. Looked in books in the library, internet, and magazines. Never did find quite what I was looking for. Maybe somebody else did...
 
I was watching a video this weekend and they recommended to shoot right into the top of the thigh. They said the turkey needs its legs to get flying and if you shoot it where the thigh meets the body it won't be able to fly or run and if it is quartering away you will also drill the vitals.

I've never shot one with a bow, but sounds like sound thinking to me.

Be Safe, Shoot Straight!
 
I dont know any sites, but the best place to shoot the bird with a bow is right above his legs. Then his legs are taken out. The birds vitals are also right in the area. You hit him right above the legs and you will get him every time.
