My goal this season is to kill my first animal with my bow. I was thinking about just using my normal muzzy 3 blade that I use for deer hunting. Is that ok or do I need to buy a different kind? Suggestions? I shoot a Bowtech Assassin 29 inch draw with 60 lbs pull. Thanks!

Shoot what you use for deer, best broadhead is one that is well placed.

Where do I need to aim for a turkey? Center of the body or base of the neck? Im not yet good enough for a head shot!

Shoot them where the leg joins the body. Any broadhead will do the trick but the mechanicals will be better.
Turkeys aren't tough but they do have a small kill zone. Their vitals are very small. If you hit the vitals it doesn't matter what broadhead you are shooting.
This river don't go to Aintry.

I plan on using my grim reaper mechanicals. I too am worried about shot placement. I've been looking online and have seen some nice pics of where to shoot them.
