bow hunting for turkeys

[lefty79]

I am going to try bow hunting for turkeys this year,this is actually the first time I will turkey hunt and am wondering what kind of broadheads to use and where to shoot the bird. Any info would be great! Thanks and happy hunting to all!

Turn your bow down to 60lbs. Pass thru is a bad word. Shoot the biggest cut broadhead you can get.

You should prolly shoot the bird outdoors.

Muddy has a sticky with good illustrations on shot placement above this thread.

Hit 'em high watch 'em die, hit 'em low, watch 'em go.
this is only 90% true since a tom in full strut has several inches of feathers on top. It really would be best to consult a turkey anatomy photo to determine shot placement.
Also, from someone who bow hunts turkeys without a ground blind, if you plan to go that route, pm me for some good tag soup recipes

Good luck!!
