i was thinking about laying down the mossburg this turkey season.I'd like to get my first bow bird with my crossbow,what do you guys suggest for broadheads.I was leaning towards a large expandable like the spitfire max or f.o.c.If also seen the giulitine heads but i don't know if i would be comfortable taking a 30-35 yd head shot on a longbeard any suggestions?

I plan on trying to take a gobbler this year too with my xbow. I looked at the Guillotine 100 grn. The guy at BPS says the 100 grn.  will work with my Sealth XLT but not the Ghost. The problem is the foot stirrup. If the Guillotine works out of my Stealth, I'm going to try that out...I would just love to smack one with a Guillotine. I plan on setting up my decoy's about 20 yrds from my blind. I don't think they would make a good broadhead if you're going to shoot over that.
Good luck , David

I have used Spitfires with my vertical bow with great success. I plan on using them with my crossbow also.
