I have owned them for a few years; have not killed with them yet. I did shoot and miss. I have not turkey hunted in several years, but I will carry then the next time I go.

Magnus (as in Magnus Bullheads) has a $5 dvd with tons of turkey kills. Looks like it worked pretty well to me....you'd have to get the bird within about 20 yds or so, although they do show one 26 yd shot. I'm a Magnus fan, but personally I'd just use one of their regular broadheads.

i will be watching this one! IMO i would use a regular bh and go for the higher percentage shot.

Magnus came out with the Bullhead. Same concept but with a much better design. I personally have used em on 2 birds with great results. I had mine flying out to 30 yrds right with my practice tips.

Before the Bullhead came out, I was shooting the Guillotine. I have killed one turkey with it at about 15 yards. I wasted alot of blades testing it out in the backyard...but I had to be confident. I set up a hen decoy and started shooting at 20 yards. Beyond 20, it got a little wobbly out of my bow. 20 yds and below...it flew like a field tip on THEIR arrows.

I met the owner of the Company a couple of days ago here at work. He mentioned getting me a few to try out all I need now is a place to go turkey hunting. LOL

I have seen them on TV show's and the one thing that I do like about the Guillotine,
if you hit your mark he is down for the count.

Turkeys can't run or fly without a head!

Try them bad boy's I think you will like them and I wish you Good Luck!

I've experienced BOTH the guillotine and the Bullhead and would STRONGLY recommend the Bullhead by magnus over the guillotine 10 to one hands down.

bullhead
The blades are "angled" to help with arrow flight and natural spin.
You screw them on and take a couple of practice shots & your ready to hunt.
If you break a blade - small phillips screwdriver fixes it with extra blades quick and easy.
straight flight every time.

guillotine
the blades are flat - you have to cover them with "straws" to make them fly straight - if one of the straws comes off the arrow dives.
you spend 20 minutes with assembly.
if you break a blade - disassemble and re-assemble
if you lose a "straw" which is hard as heck to keep up with - you can't hunt after the hike.

both
they are designed for a head/neck shot - if you hit them in the body they bounce off
IT IS WAY COOL TO WATCH THE HEAD GET CHOPPED OFF.
The smaller the diameter - the faster your arrow (aerodynamics) so buy the smaller one and practice more... you lose range with the wider cut... the 3 inch diameter is all you need if you shoot a 4 inch group (think about it) - the 4 inch diameter gives one more inch of wiggle room - but you lose it with speed.
they're only good for about 23 yards - they lose speed fast.

Ive used them ,cut a turkeys head off at 16-17 yards. Head went one way turkey body another. Lots of fun to shoot.

thanks for the advice

Magnus also has a arrow that you can buy that is designed to work with the bh for the best balance. I have the arrow and the bh, but haven't shot them yet.

[huntresss]

I couldn't get them to fly good, but I'm shooting a 45# longbow. They're also a pain to carry out in the field.

[Rotag]

I have seen one almost completly take the head off of an emue at 25 yards.

Who shot an emu!?
I'd like to see an LDP of that!
