| #2 thru #5- 3 inch mag 12 ga. Mossberg pump with a predator xx-full choke. Will almost behead the strutters. I call you the harbinger of death on the squirrels, but i am the grim reaper on turkeys. I love to take the birds and put them on a smoker and use sugar maple or pecan wood. They turn out with a nice mahogany color and taste great. Add a little salt and pepper for seasoning with a side of dirty rice, you got a meal!!!

| Hey Bruce, a good sharp broadhead works well to.

Yep.......But I like having the best weopon possible in my hands.12 gauge with 3 1/2 inch shells sounds like a more sure bet of getting that turkey onto my dinner plate

| 3inch or 3 1/2, either will do the job, but i do like the challenge of a bow. Have you seen or heard of anyone using the guilliteen? broadheads for turkey? The ones with the three blades about 3 inches long? I wondered if they would fly straight and how accurate they might be at 40 yards? I kinda like the idea of cutting off their heads with that thing. I am pretty good with a bow, but a forty yard head or neck shot is a tough shot, unless you happen to be Fred Bear or Uncle Ted...

| Tep, they are expensive. Me and bushhog103 are going to try and slaughter some, just waiting on season to open. Might have to include a couple of others as well.
