Special field tips for stumps

[Earl E. Nov...mber]

A few years back, someone was making a round ball head, about 3/8" dia. It worked great on soft wood as the head was bigger than the shaft.. However it skipped badly off of harder things, especially with a less than dead center hit.

End of the day I am a judo guy, never a failure although I have manged to loose a few, but that's just me.

Another vote for Judo's here. I can't think of a stumpshooting situation that I wished I had something else. They are not the easiest to carry in certain quivers though.

I have shot a ton of Judo tipped arrows.  Rotten stumps are OK but the ones not yet rotten are  tough on any arrow and point.  I always shot wood arrows left a little long.  That way when you hit something harder than anticipated and the point breaks off, retaper and reglue onto the now slightly shorter arrow.

I was wondering bout that, seems like it would get frustrating putting in or taking out of a back quiver.
