I am just curious what type of broadhead everyone prefers to use when hunting turkeys with bow. Mechanical or Fixed Blade? I've heard two stories:

Fixed Blade because it is what I shoot deer hunting and the do the job, so people say why adjust for turkeys.

Mechanical because you don't what a pass through with a turkey or else the have a better chance of flying away. Mechanical will do the job and wont pass through.

Either one I'm sure will work fine, but I'm just wondering what everyone prefers.

idont know about the lack or replies i asked yesterday and 1 answer

you can use deer broadheads just that u do want the arrow to stay in the the animal. ive also heard to add these to the tip

not fond of mechs jmho CRIMPSON TALONS the way to go..

personally i like large mechanicals around 2 inches for turkey.

I normally use fixxed head's for large game ,but use Nap Spitfire Gobbler Getter's 100gr [mechanical]for turkey's with Muzzy Grasshopper's to prevent the arrow from passing completely through .
