« on: January 16, 2010, 04:52:00 PM »
Been reading alot lately about guys using stone points to hunt with...really cool but Colorado doesnt allow them for big game at least. Are most of you guys allowed to use them in your states?

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

the regulations in WI are so ambiguous that nobody knows.  I have a letter from the DNR stating they are legal.

Sounds strange to me how different states have such different views. Stone points have killed game for much longer than steel broadheads - I don't see why they should not be legal. It's too bad.

Legal in Illinois as long as not barbed.

But, we're one of only two states who can't be trusted with concealed carry.

Georgia Regulations say that arrow for deer, bear, and feral hogs must be broadhead type--kinda vague.

As Hawkeye said, stone points are legal in IL.  The requirement for non barbed heads was removed a few years back, so barbed is also legal.
