I like the rocket buck blasters and remove the fixed blades. Other than that any expandable will work fine. Shoot for the head or mid to the top of theback for best results! .

My buddy has bought a Guillotine but hasn't used it yet. We are both Rage addicts and no bird he or I have shot has ran, flopped, flown, or hovered more than 30 yards. I shoot the 2 blade (2" diameter) for yard birds. Good luck.

I have not shot the gobbler guillotines, but I shot 2 birds with the Magnus Bullhead last year. I had better luck getting the Gullheads to fly better.

Not a bow hunter myself but watched a guy on TV using the Guillotine. You must hit the bird in the head! He hit one low on the birds wing and the arrow bounced off and the bird flew away no worse for wear. So I guess you need to be pretty good bow hunter to use them.
