    Was In A Building Mood (Turkey Head)

    I was in the mood to tinker, and build something this evening, so I built a broadhead specifically for birds, and primarily for shooting turkey in the neck/head.

    This is an 85 grain NAP 2 blade Spitfire expandable ground down, keeping the blades intact, to be a screw point adapter for a Zephyr Sasquatch broadhead.

    With some creative cutting, and grinding I got it down to 175 grains total weight, which is perfect since that's what I shoot.

    When assembled, the Sasquatch holds the Spitfire blades locked into their fully open position.

    The Sasquatch has a 1-1/2" wide cut.
    The Spitfire has a 1-5/8" wide cut.

    It's nothing like the Magnus Bullhead, or the Gobbler Guillotine, but should work pretty darn good.

    It spins true, and shoots great.

    Should make a massive hole in one. Should rival the holes a rage or grim reaper would make.

          I just hope I get a chance to use it before the season closes.
          Heck, I can walk out my door, and hunt turkey (lot of them), but still haven't got to go yet.

            Rick that looks pretty cool. Maybe patent that thing?? If I had Turkeys right outside my house, work would be calling looking for me...

                Make the time. I think killing one with a head you designed and built will be right up there with killing one with a bow you built. Unforgettable.

                  This! My boss wouldn't see me for days.


                  Seriously though Rick that thing just looks deadly.

                      I'm going to build another today, so I have two to carry.
                      Then hopefully soon I'll get to go after a gobbler with them.

                          Are you just brazing them together with silver solder or something?
