Share yor favorite small game head idea!!!

[String Cutter]

Well, I was looking at 3Rivers at the Magnus small game blunts....You know the ones with the bleeder blades... And I was thinking WOW!!! Deem heads sure look like they would put a hurting on a squirrel... But at $3.33 each I might as well use a cheap broadhead instead....
Well, I got to thinkin and crunching da numbers and came out with the same BH that only will cost us $1.13 each to make per head..
First ya order a pack of blunts(12 for $3.65) and Bear bleeder blades (10 for $7.90).
cut a nice deep knotch right down through the end of da blunt about 1/16 deep with a drimel tool. Slide the blade into the notch and make a mark with a pen where the rear of the bleeders will snap into the sides of the blunt. Then cut the side knotches.   After that I checked for fit and put some JD Weld in there to keep the blade from ever coming out even though they snapped in pretty good..
Took me less than a minute to do the whole thing...... And looks like it'll do the same job at 1/3 the price.... Can't beat that for one minutes work...

a .38 pistol cartridge; glued onto a wood shaft; with a small nail driven through the side of the case; and bent back a little- works pretty cheap too.
Where I hunt; there are rocks everywhere; and I use rubber blunts.

Like you just mentioned, the time tested blunt/pistol casing with bleeder has always been a favorite of mine (course, I usually just use sharpened C-clips or banding material in place of commercial bleeders). Another favorite is a sharpened wingnut behind a target tip...

38. casings are good

I am working on a heavy stainless steel one right now. There will be an extra "thump" incorporated in it............pics coming soon.

hey string cutter long time no see...
check out Tom Musatto's website, he has a great tutorial on making those little heads.  i got a squirrel last week with a nutter but it was pretty close range and a good hit to the vitals, i also sharpen the first 1/2 inch or so to a point.  i like the 38 with the bleeder much better.  they do a lot of damage and take care of business.

i'm headin' out tomorrow afternoon to chase some squirrels myself.  

good luck,
kyle

I glue a 1/2 inch nut on a field point. Works very well delivering shock to a small varmit

[trad kid]

what are nutters? i use the barta blunts at 3 rivers they are steel blunts with a bunch of lades behind it. they work really good i got a jackrabit with one, worked well

[Bowspirit]

Nutter's are just hex nuts screwed on the end of a shaft...

[trad kid]

ow, i know what those are.

[thetroutguy]

I just made some "grabbers" buy taking regular glue on field tips and fraying the shaft end with some side cutters.

Haven't tried them on rabbits yet, but will soon!

[Bowspirit]

I love those "grabbers". Basically a homemade gamenabber blunt...

[Crimson mist]

I use 5/16 coupling nuts that have been put in a vise and a round rotary file chucked in a drill used to hollow one of the threaded ends so that the edges are sharp kinda like a hex blunt then you just screw it on your point taper  95 cents each

How about some pics of all these home made point ideas?

1" washer behind a screw in field point seems to work OK.
