is a brodhead adapter needed for these arrows?

[huntnmuleys]

I haven't needed em.

[Buxndiverdux]

I haven't needed them either.

[Jwilliam]

Never used them either.

I haven't needed them.  I did buy some for some VPA 175 grain broadheads I bought and thought about using.

[BigJim]

They can protect the end of the shaft, but are unnecesarry.

As the other replies indicate they are not "needed" but the broadhead adaptor rings made for them provide a nice tapered transition between the broadhead base and the shaft diameter. Using them certainly wouldn't hurt anything.

[ArrowAtomik]

I prefer to foot these with Aluminum myself... so no.

[beetlebailey1977]

Very tough arrows.....no need.

[Shinken]

Ditto - BH adapter not needed - nice tough arras....

Shoot straight, Shinken

I bought the adaptors, but didnt like how they fit to my heavy field points (left a step). I put them back in the box and footed my shafts with aluminum. Ive hit pretty hard stuff that Ive ruined other arrows and these things are amazing. They are a bit heavy for carbon shafts, but so far I like em.

[TxAg]

I foot mine with aluminum and can't break one...and I try to break them occasionally.

[longbow565]

Same as Tx except I try to break them ALL the time. Toughest arrow after footing I have ever owned.

[OBXarcher]

I just got a dozen 400's.

Can't wait to set them up

[Bill Carlsen]

If you foot them with an aluminum shaft that is 5/16 (20XX) most every bh adapter or screw in broadhead fits perfectly and toughens up the shaft. And it's much cheaper.

[dragon rider]

As far as I can tell the best use for the broadhead adapters is for getting 5/16 and up field points out of bag targets.

[Craig]

I use them with 175 gr, field points. I grind them down to fit perfect with the points. I use my bench sander.  If you shoot into a bag target you have use them with 175gr tips. You can't pull them out of the target.
