Ii'm not familiar with the Green Blind but I can tell you that I use the Nap Spitfire Gobbler Getter's in 100gr with Muzzy Grasshopper's to back the head and stop the arrow from making a complete passthrough.I've been using these heads for 4 season's now and don't plan on changing.

A large cutting Rocket just can't be beat for Gobblers. REMEMBER if you are going to shoot throught the netting on the Matrix that you have to make sure that they are straight blade tips and not any of the "L-tip" designs. My personal favs are the Rocket Slammerheads. Archery Experts have the MiniBlaster 4's and the Hammerheads 4L's on sale for ONLY $9.99!!!

I've had luck with the Grim Reaper, Spitfire and the Vortex. As for the New Double Bull Matrix 360, I haven't tried it in the field as yet--soon, but I can tell ya, it's one hell of a blind.
Can't go wrong getting yourself one. The initial investment is more compared to the Eastmans, Ameristep, Game Tracker, etc, but you'll have no regrets down the road.

The giulitine is fine, but very expensive for 1 head ,and then you need a seperate shaft to match it . At near a cost of 30.00 CDN and shaft's to match could get costly if you damage one or lose it .

I have killed turkeys with Sidewinder 100s and Miniblaster 4L w. Path. point. Those Miniblasters are devastating and 'messy'. I get the same results with the Sidewinders. Its no different than shooting whitetails....you still need to hit the vitals.

I like the NAP Razorbak for turkey. This is a quality, cut on contact broadhead that really does the job well.
