I never carry one. Last that I knew Kansas would only allow you to carry arrows with 7/8 cutting diameter while hunting big game. This rules out the stumping arrow.

either turn it around backwards in the bow quiver or I use one of these piggy backers...

or if your using heavy 250grn heads like I do, then these work really well and still fit into your quiver the normal way...

Guru, I use the 250 grain head because it's the same as my BH and field point set up.  I like the judo because I can shoot at various unknown distances so I have to have it consistent with my other arrows.  

I'm going to check out these "piggy backers", I'm not familiar with them.

Smallwood, on the hex head do you find that it buries at all or does it do a good job keeping it up?  I like the judo over the blunt because it catches in the grass and tends to pop my arrow up.  Don't like going diggin in knee high grass during snake season down here:)

I really like the hammers that 3rivers sells, they are like a hex head, only hex head only makes a 200grn point. the hammers go all the way up to 250grns and I like the design better.
I have almost completely stopped shooting my judos(135grn glue-on plus 125grn adapter) in favor of these hammers. they do a great job of keeping the arrow up and not burying, just like the judos.    :archer2:

I use a old 12 gauge shot shell cut in half( you can cut as much off as needed for the difference in length compaired to your broadheads). I punch out the old primer and use a machine screw to fasten it to the one side of my cat quiver mini.

Pretty much the same situation here in Pa..  I for one don't want to run into the WCO who has no interest in learning about our "traditional habits".

I carry a kwikee quiver in my daypack with a combo of flu flu and old arrows with a variety of heads for small game.  The hood os made to hold any head.

I started using Ace Hex blunts because the will fit in the hole in the quiver foam that a field point makes.
No problem with them getting buried under grass.

I ordered some of the hammers at 250 grains so I'll check them out this weekend.
