Default Turkey Broadhead

I was thinking of shooting my Muzzy MX4's. What do you guys or gals with turkey bowhunting experience think?

Put it in the boiler room and you'll have a dead turkey. If you're shooting the same set-up that you normally use for deer, then I'd suggest trying a mech. head with a larger cut dia. just to get a quicker kill and possibly keep the arrow from passing through.

Obviously , as mentioned, ANY well placed b-head will work nicely but I would strongly suggest a much larger cutting mech b-head. There are several reasons why most seasoned turkey hunters prefer the larger cutting destruction of a mech. I've tried several and the best of the best seem to be the Rocket Hammerhead 100 with it's 2" cut and the Rocket Slammerhead 90 with it's 1 3/4" cut. Good luck and good shootin'

Description:
Zwickey Scorpios grab onto the animal as the as broadhead penetrates. A tight fit creates drag as the Scorpio slides up the shaft, which prevents "pass throughs". Arrow stays in game assuring recovery. Flies true, air drag on spring arms is less than on one feather.


Sizes Available:


20/64' shaft, 20 grain
21/64' shaft, 20 grain
22/64' shaft, 20 grain
23/64' shaft, 20 grain
24/64' shaft, 20 grain


2 Scorpios per package


Keywords:

I have used mechanicals for years and am a fan of them on turkeys. I use Muzzys on deer, but NAP splitfires for my turkey.
