I was wondering myself my bone heads seem like they'd work but are they better than the snuffers. Hope to hear good things

This was last Sunday in Texas. Low 40# Kodiak hunter and large bonehead .. Close shot . He ran about 100+ yds before bedding down hurt bad . I did stick him again for insurance but I was extremely impressed. I would usually shoot a Treeshark but I just switched to lefty and a low 40s bow was only one I had access to so I went with a little skinnier head.. You will not be disappointed. Spurs ( tradgang name) was in the blind with me so maybe he will chime in

Yep it was awesome.  I will have some of these heads.  It was nearly a complete pass thru.  I don't have any of the pics or video uploaded yet, but I will get around to it.  Those turkeys are tough.  I couldn't belive he went as far as he did, and was still alive.  His intrails were hanging out of the exit.    Great shot Seth!!!

I have used the tie on trade point from abowyer,five with self bow and cane arrows. One was a double, two from the same fall flock! Yes they really work. Good luck
