Anyone ever use the practice blades on there muzzy' s for turkey' s or maybe just use the sharp blades and shoot them for awhile to dull em up a little. Any info would be great & good luck to you all......fishon

Sharp or dull, Muzzys will pass through more times than not. I killed a turkey last fall with Muzzy 3 blade. Passed through and traveled another 20 yards. That' s 15 yards farther than the turkey did though. Your better off percentage wise with a larger cut head like a Hammerhead by Rocket or a Vortec, something with a 2" cut.

I shoot 100 grain Muzzy' s for whitetail. Come spring, I turn my bow weight down and switch to 75 grain Muzzy' s with a 25 grain Adder Point behind them. You wont pass through regardless of what blades you use.

I have also gone the mechanical route and agree that the larger cut Rockets are good for turkey hunting as well.

fishon01 use sharp heads but install arrow arresters on the arrows. I use the Zwickey Scorpio and they work great, stop all pass throughs and do not effect the arrow flight.

Good luck.

Click on the link I posted above. (The words " Adder Point" links to the Cabela' s website.)

The way they show it installed is the same way that the instructions you get with the ADDERs show it installed. (With the bends going back over the arrow shaft instead of forward toward the broadhead.)
