> I've often heard people say wild turkey meat is garbage compared to farm raised

Wild turkey has a "gamey" flavor which many people associate with it being "off" and not as good. Farm-raised has a "cleaner" flavor, more like farm-raised chicken. Some people like the wild flavor, some people like the domesticated flavor.

It's similar to the differences between venison and beef or mutton and lamb. Both venison and mutton have a ton of flavor but some people don't like that flavor, they prefer the lighter flavors of farm-raised beef or lamb.
