i talked to a fed gamey over in the little p.o. refuge who's son was using them.
the question i have is how do you plan on practicing with them? i've been curious how this works.
i'd love to shoot one with my bow, but it'll be a body shot with a broadhead, at least for starters.

I thought the "Guillotine Broadheads" were illegal in the state of Washington?
here's alink to the turkey pamphlet for '07. i didn't see anywhere where it said they were illegal...maybe i'm missing something.

i assume at this point that until i go elk hunting in the rut, this will be one of my favorite kinds of hunting. do whatever you can do to get out there and try it. if no one wants to go with you, go by yourself. watch videos, listen to tapes, surf the numerous turkey hunting forums. this is pretty much what i did the first year we hunted. you're bound to learn enough to do some damage. it's a great time and the people that don't think so haven't had a biglongbeard gobbling their head off at 15 yards in full strut. best advice is to be safe...turkey hunting can be dangerous if not taken seriously.
an elk hunt in the rut is a turkey hunt on steroids.

Legal or not, I have had many people tell me they are not what the TV makes them out to be. Tough to practice with, easily affected by the wind, have to shoot a longer arrow so you don't whack your sight, and much more I guess. A regular broadhead through the boiler should do the trick just fine.
The comercial is pretty sweet though, i'll give them that. Heads were rolling.

Personaly I think it kinda looks retarded. Than again I have never shot one. Just doesn't look like it would be fun to try and shoot.

Stupid turkeys. Good think I had the trusty 12 guage.
Sniper-I am not letting you get two easy ones this year. Better starting practicing your calling now.
Also- I hope we run into one of those 150 pound yoters this year within range. ;)

No kidding. Had a yote try to snack on my box call last year. I have been looking for a 223/12 or similar ever since... Dont think they make that in a camo/youth version do they?
