Great broadheads for turkeys...
Take your favorite broadhead and file the tip down till it's 1/8-3/16 wide (so it's a flat blunt tip)... It's devistating on a turkey... I use NAP Thunder heads for that...

Thanks for the tip. No pun intended.

Nice idea, I'll stick to big nasy mechanicals for the gobblers but that is a good idea for certain types of heads.

Your crazy trusting those flop open things... LOL

I used a regular muzzy last year on my turkey with 80 ft pounds of ke. Blew clean through it and imbedded into a tree. The turkey started to fly and collapsed in mid air about 30 yards down hill. I like the advertisement for the gobbler gillotine though. It takes their head clean off. But i don't like all those blades back by my hand. They are nasty looking.

Clean through the bird??? I would stop using those real quik... You got that one, but the first time you lose one you'll be sorry wonder why... No pass through is the key with turkeys... ;)

I trust flip flop broadheads on gobblers....no issues at all when you use a good product that has been proven to reliable.

Xarmy55, I usaully use gobbler stoppers with an extremely light arrow. You are correct, the shock value is what counts. On my last turkey I got a phone call( hot tip) and wasn't set up or didn't even have my tag yet. I purchased a tag on the way and grabbed what I had ready.( it was elk season). I never thought about grinding the tip off my broadhead. You can bet that if I ever get into that situation again I will be using your suggestion along with possibly having some adder points behind the broadhead.
