Okay so I am going to try my hand at bow hunting for turkey this year. My question is will i need to get some fixed blade broadheads or will my mechanical heads work? if so what heads do you prefer?

Broadheads for Turkey??
- Thread starter xGAxBlueChip

I already use fixed blade buzz cuts and have never used mechanical. So I prefer fixed blade, but I shoot a heavy arrow to keep speeds down right at or slightly below 300fps. I was thinking of trying the big bladed turkey broadheads that have like a 3" spread then go for the base of the neck this year. Let me ask the other guy that I know that turkey hunts with a bow and see what he says about mechanicals.
My brother swears by Rage Broadheads (http://www.ragebroadheads.com/). I suppose that's what I'll use on my first turkey with a bow this year. 
I wonder If I could just use my spitfires with the blades locked out? as long as the shots 30 yards or closer I don't think it will make that much difference in flight. I just hate to go out and buy all new broadheads but I may have too
I would use a huge cutting mechanical....are you wanting to go for the vital's or head/neck?
You know initially i was thinking head/neck but this being my first bow turkey just hitting it would be nice lol..
what about using 2-blade blood runners?
Are you saying thats what you use or just asking the question?
Check out the Grim Reaper Whitetail Special it's a 2" cut with three blades.
