I avoided the operation and have never regretted it. However, I still had to shoot shotguns and more powerful centerfires from left shoulder during years of PT. Missed a couple chances at nice toms because I could not get a quick aimed shot off fast enough from left side(using rifle). Have never shot turkey with shotgun. IF at all allowed, I would choose either a greatly loaded down centerfire, a "small game" center fire, like 22 Hornet, 25-20, 32-20, etc., even 22 WMR with nice 2X-4X scope.
