I like the three blade heads myself, you don't need a lot of bow weight, just need to shoot it really good. Not much of a kill area on a turkey.
Three blade heads are easy to sharpen, just a few things different than two blade heads. Start with a 14" mill bastard file, lay it on a flat surface and stroke head down the length of the file, turn after each stroke, put some oressure on it, it will cut a new bevel on the head. After you get this bevel you can use a flat stone to finish, I use a double sided diamond stone,
Course and fine and finish on a leather strop. Very important to rotate head after each stroke all the way through the sharpening process.

Thanks Mr. Mackey! I'm going to try the Simmons first go round, but will certainly try the mill file. That what I used back in the day with snuffers.

Good luck guys. I am afraid I'm going to miss turkey season as I am having heart surgery soon. Got a bad valve that needs replaced. Maybe be better for deer season.

Trad brew, nice set up, only thing you missing is one of those
Dynamite Pot Calls from Lone Star Game Calls.

Best of luck this spring, I've got a few weeks to go.

Killed my first two trad birds last year, hopefully i can stumble on the same luck this year. I'll probably stick with my normal set up, (#42 Omega Imperial) only thing different will be Woodsmans up front instead of Zwickey Deltas.

Good luck to all of you guys!

Love your setup there Trad Brew! I heard a few shock gobbles sat morning and saw some gobblers strutting with the hens.
