What would be a good broadhead for bow hunting turkey this fall?  I was thinking of these...

I have used Gobbler Getters and used the Ballistic Archery Steelforce turkey talon tips.  Both work great since they won't pass thru.... BUT I would not use an expandable like Gobbler Getter when shooting thru the net of say, a Double Bull ground blind.  The trajectory is compromised, and the expandable quite possible could open upon passing thru the screen, according to the manufacturer.

This fall I had in mind try to hunt geese the way i bow hunt turkey... Set up a DB blind, with some dekes in a field with a cattail swamp on one side, and ag on the other side.  I just need to find a goose target to practice on now.  :-)

What about the Gobbler Guilatene?  Anyone seen these?



I've never turkey hunted but these look like they would be quite effective.

Thanks for the feedback on broadheads.  I did see the Gobbler Guilatene, but I was hoping to get a nice bird to mount.  I am not sure if my taxidermist would appreciate two sperate pieces.
