Overview
Have you ever seen a Gobbler stupidly walking around eating berries and thought, "I could really use a drumstick right now." Well, in this guide I will tell you how to kill gobblers.
The first Way
Lots of people use this way because it is practical and simple. I never use it because I found the best way, but that comes later. What most people do is they find an ice staff or sleeping darts and freeze/put to sleep the gobbler, then attack it. simple right? Well I don't like to waste my staff on a gobbler. EDIT: If you want to use the sleep dart method, make sure he is not running away or sees you.
Second way
Really simple. Just run the gobbler up against the ocean. BUT BE CAREFUL! sometimes you kill the gobbler and the goodies fall in the ocean, which wastes all of your hard work.
My favorite way!
This is the best way. What you do is you need to harvest some berries. That should not be a problem because that is how you get gobblers anyway. Then when you see a gobbler place the berries on the ground. For some reason the gobbler just calmly walks to the berries and completly ignores the player. while he is walking up to it just whack it twice with a spear and there you have it.

EDIT: The berries can be replaced with red mushrooms, if you are afraid of losing berries.
The end
That is basically the 3 best ways to kill a gobbler.(Though there are many more) In case you were wondering, the best way to make turkey dinner in the crockpot is 2 drumsticks, 1 berry, and 1 morsel.
THE END

I just used to hide spikes (those things made of hound tooth) between berry bushes. Then I would occasionally return to collect my drumsticks.

Craft a boomerang. Two hits will nail that gobbler.

you can place walls and cach a gobbler by making him run into the walls bait makes it easyer though you can do this without
