Opinion small game head

[magnus]

I have some Hi-precision heads that are 95 grn  5/16 ferule. I was thinking of using them for small game. Grind the tip off for shock factor or just sharpen and hunt? Just a thought?

if not using dogs sharpen them up.if using dogs use an adder point

That is a pretty light weight head. Then again, I prefer pretty heavy arrows and heads. I know some others like lighter tackle. I'm not familiar with the head you are talking about. How about a pic?

[magnus]

I can't post pics. They're old from the 50's. Tiny woodsmans would best descibe them. They are light. I too use a heavy arrow set up 630+ grn. but was making some bunny arrows and just wondering. Usually use blunts but have these lying around.

Im a fan of the Game Nabbers! 160gr so they match my field tips/broadheads!

Just sharpen and hunt. I always figured if it has blades.... sharpen it!

[Charlie Lamb]

By the way... no need to dub the tips as they wouldn't provide significant shock to warrant the alteration.

If there's one thing I've learned on here is  when Charlie speaks , listen. Thank you sir. I wasn't sure if it would be worth the trouble or not. They'll go in the mix with my talons and 38 shell casings.

Sharpen and hunt. I use old Bodkins the same way...especially on tree rats.

Well there's two wise gents I'm going to listen too.

Chopped Snuffers are crazy deadly. Cut about 1/3 of the tip off so you have less a chance it will snake under the dirt.

 I'm a big fan of those Red Feather Talons right now. They've done quite the job on squirrels.

i was checkin out some nuts at the hardware store the other night , and saw some "tee" nuts , for furniture , which gave me the idea to cut a penny or nickel up like the tee-nut is ,then you could either taper your arrow-tip , and drill a hole , so you would have a blunt with stickers on it , or just epoxy it to the flat front.


i have some hardwood and basswood scrap layin around ,im going to whittle up some teardrop blunts.


looks like it might be just you and me for the bunny chase magnus.
