You see everyone talking about what type of broadheads they are shooting. I have yet to see any talk about any other style of point.

When i get my ten point I want to use it for not only deer hunting but turkey. fox groundhogs and other pest. What other points can I use?

For small game a judo point works well. I have even used field tip with a fender washer behind it for shocking power. A fender washer is a standard washer with a small hole in the middle you should be able to find one that will have a hole just big enough to fit between the shaft and the field or target tip. you are adding grains so for a 125 grain head I would use a 100 grain field tip for a 100 I would use a 85 grain tip. You can get the washers at any hardware store.   For Turkeys I would use your normal broadhead and you can get grabbers that fit behind the broadhead to keep the arrow into the bird. Groundhogs I would use the same set up as for turkeys. If your shooting critters that are tough use a broadhead set up with a grabber if need be. Fox and Yotes use a broadhead.
Said I never had much use for one, never said I didn't know how to use it.
