Bowhunt turkey--aim where?

RE: Bowhunt turkey--aim where?
I agree about re-thinking slick tricks for use on turkeys. I shoot slicks myself for deer and I love'm dearly. But you want your arrow to idealy stay in a turkey. Add in that they don't hardly ever hold still worth a damn and you'll want all the forgiveness you can get. I personally shoot Rocket Hammerheads because they are like the most freakin' haneous broadhead around that won't cut a bird in half and they use an insane amount of energy upon opening (which with turkeys is a positive thing). I am thinking about trying out bullheads this year though... I think that might be kinda cool.

Ok, got me thinking again, lol. What about NAP Spitfire Gobbler Getter Broadheads , with a name like gobbler getter, is this a good head? I'm not against shooting a different head, just know that the slick tricks shoot great for me.

I shot a jake this fall with just normal 3 blade muzzys and it only went about twenty and fell over. But for the spring im thinking of switching to large cutting diameter expandible like grim reaper or Rage. the shot was about ten yards and i got a complete pass through pulling 55 lbs out of a 2005 Fred bear obsession.

i too shot one this fall w/ a rocket sidewinder.....it was sharply quartering away.....the arrow went in off its back leg and through the middle of its breast plate...the bird went nowhere!

I have been told to shoot with them just slightly quartering away and to try and shoot through the wing as well... I guess this will slow the arrow from going all the way through and it will hopefully prevent flyaways... is this true?
