Judo points for turkeys?
 

I wanted to know if these will take down a bird because most the shots i get to take are at birds on the run. I know that if i miss the will stop so i can find it again but i just was wondering if it'll kill em?


THANKS

never shoot at a running turkey. loosing arrows is part of the game...but theres no reason to shoot at a running bird. the kill zone on a turkey is only about the size of a baseball or softball. i dont think ANYONE should ever take a running shot on a turkey!

I'll say this....you come up with the most interesting questions.....I would NEVER have thought of most of them......Hillarious...:D

I dunno about a judo point, but a blunt will if you head shoot them. I'm thinking....no, I'm KNOWING, a broadhead is the way to go here.....Yer gonna have to stop spooking them before you shoot at 'em....

Judo points will bounce off a turkey but may do wounding damage which will leave the bird unrecoverable, I say this with experience when I was a young teenager. Never shoot at a turkey or other big game species without a razor sharp broadhead. I also agree not to shoot at a running turkey, your outcome will be less then desireable. Do everything you can to bring the birds in close for a high percentage shot, know your kill zone and practice accordingly.

Where to start? How about not taking unethical shots? Thats a good start. Why are they running? Are you getting busted on a regular basis? If so start trying to figure out why.

Im planning on using a G5 small game head to try a head shot on a turkey if I have the opertunity for one this year. If not it will be a super sharp G5 Striker on body shots.

Had a buddy last year grab the wrong arrow in his quiver to shoot a turkey with. It was tipped with a judo point. It did kill the bird granted it was a 20 yard shot but it dropped the bird in its tracks. he hit the bird in the back and pretty much demolished the spine. Before I get all kinds of hate speech on this,it was purely accidental and i dont believe the out come would have been the same if it were a broadside shot. Needless to say after the a$$ chewing I gave him for the mix up I am sure it wont happen again.

shooting at a running anything is stupid.why take that shot?gives us a bad name.

RE: Judo points for turkeys?
 

Robs right. Also don't shoot groundhogs with them, I learned that the hard way. They take your $10 arrow down their hole and you then spend 4 hrs digging up the hole to recover a broken arrow.
