    Default For those of you bow hunting Turkey


    What kind of broadheads will you be shooting??

    I know Ryan H was trying to decide on some new ones, Have you made your choice..

    I can't decide what to use, I am thinking of going to an expandable witha bigger cut..

    I'll use the Talon Force Turkey broad head I used last year. I was thinking about that Gobller guilatine but I don't know if I'm good enough to hit the neck even with the extra 1" of diameter.

    i will also be using the same setup as for deer. only i've changed the broadheads that i shot my turkey with last year.

    last year i shot my turkey with a 100 gr. Wasp Jak-Hammer. it dropped him where he stood and he died pretty much instantly.

    i've since changed to a broadhead that flies further and more accurately. i'm now using the 100 gr. 2 bladed expandable First Cut. it flies true for me out to and including 40 yards with no adjustments.

    I'll stick with my 100 grain Spitfires, but I do have to Gobbler Guilottine as a backup if I decide I need it.

    I will be using the same broadheads I used for deer season, 100 grain Muzzy broadheads. I might try some bludgeon tips, I like the idea of shooting at the head, kill or clean miss.

    Probably the NAP turkey heads. I've got some I bought right when they came out a couple years ago and have never tried them out.

    I used the Gobbler Guilitine last year. Missed the turkey due to wind. The heads are great, but I'll warn you, they plane in windy conditions. I've shot a wood chuck and a couple rabbits with them. They are DEVISTATING. Just watch them in windy conditions.
