Default gobbler guillotine/magnus bullhead

To any guys shooting either of these, what is the trick to get them to fly with any sort of accuracy? I tried the 125 grain bullheads last year and could not get them to fly consistent at all. Ive shot too many birds with a normal broadhead into the body, and i need more of a challenge!! What is everyones setup?

Im shooting a Mathews DXT with 29.5'' draw, and easton st epic arrows with blazer vanes. Whisker biscuit rest. I know i will need longer arrows, so how should i set them up!?

Laser Tune your Arrow to your rest. ( Left and Right) First, Use a Longer arrow than normal. Try a 4-5 inch fletch to help stabilize the bigger Broadhead.

It's very tricky in some cases, It's worth your effort to get it tuned. More time shooting the bow is better than longer times in the field looking for downed Turkeys.

Try the Victory/ Bullhead Combo. They really worked for me this Year. Going on 3 birds looking for my 4th and 5th

Good Luck

Im not worried about chasing a downed bird or looking for one. I have shot atleast ten birds with a regular broadhead and an adder star behind it and i have yet to chase one or not find one, they just flop around right where they are hit.

My rest is perfectly set up. Already been laser tuned. The arrows i had were longer then normal and had 4 inch fletchings. Which victory's do you use?

I barely had to adjust my sights when switching from 125g field points to the 125g bullheads. Try using an arrow with 4 fletchings. That helped me. My fiance didn't have as good luck, even with the 4 fletched arrows. He took it to the local bowshop and the guys there moved his whisker biscuit. I think they moved it a little farther back, but I'm not 100% sure. But now he has them flying great. So maybe try the 4 fletched arrows and also try adjusting your whisker biscuit.
