Last year's turkey was shot with a G5 Striker Magnum (1 1/2") and it went 20 yards.

I like the 170 FOC by NAP 3" cut . what we are trying to say is hit them wright and you can use the head you hunt big game with . there is no magic broad head for turkeys. JMO.

I plan on using 100 Gr Grim Reaper Xbow Razortips. I know they work good on deer so they should work good on turkeys too (fingers crossed) :D
