What do you use on Spring Gobblers? Especially, broadheads. I harvested this Jake last spring with a Grim Reaper Whitetail Special which opens up to 2" My arrows are 430 grain XX75 2213's. I am thinking of switching over to a Magnus Bullhead for head/neck only shots and I was just wondering what others use or have used and what you have had success with. I like to use decoys and a blind on private land hunts so we don't pressure the birds running and gunning. They typically show up some time throughout the morning. The blind is always located between their roost and a feed field of either cut corn or soybeans.

I have a friend who has only used a bow for over 25 years and he concurs, with one exception. He intentionally dulls his blades for turkeys to inflict more damage instead of just zipping through, especially with EFOC adult arrows and coc heads. Turkeys are very easy to get pass throughs, so maybe, just maybe, the flapper blades have a purpose here!
