Me and arron (fred bear) are trying turky for the first time and we want to use are crossbows of course. What is the best setup for beginners??

I would use the wasp boss broadheads with zwickeys. And what ever bolts you are already shooting

Any hunting head that you are comprftable with and which is accurate will do the job.

But do install an arrow arrester of some kind on the arrow. There are many out there but I have found that the Zwickey Scropio's are the best. They stop the arrow in the bird and in no way effect the flight of the arrow so your accuracy remains as it was before.

Good luck.

My set up is Gold Tip + 100 gr Slick Tricks + Zwickey scorpio Grapplers.

The part of my turkey set up that seems to be the most important is "yellow acorns" (corn). I call them in by rattling it in a one pound coffee can. They (the Rio Grands) come running. Having deer and Mouflon to feed with them does not hurt and gives them the courage to come close. These pictures were taken this morning (except for the last one of the rams and it was taken yesterday), enjoy and good hunting:

I got them at Archers Nook last year, and I just ordered the last 10 packs they had today. You might get them from the bow shop. Just type in zwickey. if you can't find any I'll have extras.

I think I'm just going to use my regular setup for deer.

Patmax,
Looks about like the feeding frenzy you can stir up with the ducks/geese at our local lake with a bag of cookies.
(duck hunting equipment = bag of Oreos & a baseball bat)
