I don't think Túrin's decisions were particularly bad, it's just that they always had the worst possible outcome because of the curse. He couldn't have made good decisions, because it's the result that defines whether it was good or bad.
You could argue that the entire Lay of Leithian was a ridiculously bad decision, but it was actually the greatest story in the history of Middle-earth. Similarly, sending the Fellowship to destroy the Ring was an awful decision, but it turned out just fine as well.
