Was having a look at mechanical broadheads on the Cabela's Website and found these charmers:

They look pretty nasty with a 4" cutting area presumably designed to remove a turkey head.

Just wondering if anyone can think of an application for such a device in AUS???

Here is the blurb on the 'Gobbler Guillotine':

Now, archers can take aim at the head and neck of a turkey and drop it where it stands with the first broadheads created exclusively for turkey hunting. Gobbler Guillotine broadheads are designed for accurate and humane head and neck shots on turkeys, with four fixed blades sporting lethal cutting widths of up to 4" x 4" at 125 grains. The wide cutting width and razor-sharp blades create a larger "kill zone'' target area, save meat on a bird, and decrease tracking time and lost birds. Gobbler Guillotine broadheads fly like field points, and the bodies are made of sturdy, yet lightweight aircraft-grade titanium and aluminum for extra strength. Shafts are easy to recover because the long blades act as a buffer against deflecting off objects or being buried. All blades are made of hardened stainless steel at .035" thick. The manufacturer recommends use of carbon shafts with large helical fletching for best flight with these broadheads.
Custom Carbon Arrows
Optimize flight with your Gobbler Guillotine. 32" shaft has three, 5" oversized helical feather fletchings and an adjustable inset nock. Available:

· 125-grain, 4" x 4" broadheads (per 3

· 100-grain, 2.5" x 2.5" broadheads (per 3)

· 125-grain extra blades (per 10)

· 100-grain extra blades (per 10)

Thinking of buying one just as a collectors item....
