Since you brought up shot placement, where is the best place to hit them? Aim for the base of the neck? I have heard of some trying to pin the wings, but that was with a vertical. I have only shot one turkey, and it was with a smokepole. Looking forward to this years season. Thanks.....RROppie wrote:Yep, turkey's are really tough, shot placement is the key.mr meat wrote:Don,t think its which broadhead you use,Shot placement is more important as with any game!

My wife lost her first gobbler, he was 15 yds shot with a 20 ga 3"mag # 4 shot, rolled him hard and when he got his feet under him he was runnin

Don't know any man that could take a hit like that an still walk let alone run.
