Default RE: broadheads for turkeys?

ok it all depends on how you feel about the matter.
1. Gobbler Guillitine-great for head shots will literaly cut the head completely off if you hit it. i shot a 28lb bird and it didnt even flop it jsut fell and kind of qiuvered. The draw backs are there very hard to carry, they brake easly, you have to get extra long arrows bc of the blades hitting your sights, and your shots are limited to about 25 yards. The benys there DEADLY if you hit the bird where you aim game ovver its done no running, no flying no floping. And if you miss you dont wound the bird, you might get another shot but i dought it bc they wistle like bottle rockets.
2.Expandles- i have used the Gobbler Getters from NAP and they work pretty good. The idea behind the expandables is to make a very large hole. The gobbler getter has a blunt tip so you have some shock that slows the arrow and you have the cutting hole that it leaves.
I hope this info helpd you out and if you get the gobbler getters they give you a shot placement card that helps. GOOD LUCK
