Turkey Broadheads
What are you guys tipping your arrows with for gobblers? Bringing the bow this year for the second tag if opportunity presents itself.
Thanks.

Have seen awesome cut performed by the Rage Turkey Broadheads and also have had Slick Trick recommended by a bow hunter who hunts everything form turkey to moose, swears by them, likely my next purchase.

I shoot slick tricks now, but after allot of review, it seems a body shot on a turkey is not ideal. I know a few guys have posted vids here using the magnus bullhead and guillotine for head shots

Your right TR, the body shots aren't ideal....years ago I watched two birds fly away with my arrow stuck it them (my dog help me recover one). I have since either shot it up the Texas red eye or the neck/head. It's tough, took two shots at a Tom once both missed his neck when he moved slightly. He had no idea what happened and just carried on...
I have been using the Muzzy Turkey Thumpers for yrs, however looking at them in the box with all my other broad heads pretty much anything with a good cutting surface would work nicely if you get a clean hit on the head/neck.

I have had good luck with Slick Tricks, you just have to hit them in the right place.

I have used the Rage Turkey Broadheads and they worked well, but I also have the Hypodermic's which have also performed for me so.... I will be using one of those two, just not surer which one as of yet.

I have yet to hunt turkeys but really hope to do so sooner than later. I have always been a fan on sharp cut on contact broadheads. Slick tricks are a great broadhead. For turkeys I would probably go with a decapper. I have had a few friends who hunted turkeys with bows and had lost birds or long retrievals and almost losing birds. One guy ways switching to a shotgun and giving up the bow for turkeys. Me personally I would choose a decapper. Dead turkey or miss.

I have posted this before, but this should help and refresh a lot of people who are bow hunting turkeys. Its all in the placement like on any other game you hunt. Goodluck and i hope this helps. The music in the Video is annoying but some might like it LOL
