In city Turkey?

Hey guys I participate in a city hunt for deer. Have taken the class and everything... my question is is there any restrictions on turkey hunting in city?

Not familiar with your jurisdiction, but I'd be real careful making an assumption about being able to hunt turkeys in town based on the deer policy. The acknowledged overpopulation of deer and the resulting problems have opened the door for urban/suburban harvesting in many places, and shooting arrows (or bolts) down from tree-stands seems to be the least objectionable means to that end.  Until a lot of people start screaming that turkeys are ravaging their azaleas and making it unsafe to drive, I doubt that regulations on hunting in town or within a specified distance of an occupied dwelling would be relaxed.

Hope you do find a good place to hunt 'em! Post some pics if you get one.

I work on the outskits of town. Yesterday a few wild turkies met me at my car as I left work. I feed them by hand!

Are you sure they're still "wild"?
