I would imagine they would be ok as long as you get a solid hit. I'll be using mechanicals as well..................

Absolutely, the bigger the better. I shoot a 2" Hammerhead at 'em.....They have small vitals, and they like to fly off at times....The bigger the hole the better.

I concur that mech. are the way to go for turkey. I like the jackhammers or spitfires!

I was told the other day that you can put a washer or bottle cap behind your broadhead to help your arrow hit!! any thoughts on that!!!

I will be using the 2in jackhammers with out the washer/bottle cap. Unless someone can convince me different!!! Just dont sound right!

Are you thinking something like this? You can use these on broadheads as well as field points.........
