Here are some of the heads posted above.  I thought it could help out seeing them together.  I think all work well, but the field point with something behind them doesn’t work well for me if I am really shooting stumps, sticks, and logs or have a chance to hit them.  They tend to imbed deep in something even semi hard and be difficult to get back out or if I get them out I bend them particularly 175 gr. and up field points.  These all bounce off or if they stick it is something real soft and they come out easy.

L to R 125 judo, 100 Easton Judo type, 125 Hex Head, 145 Hammer, 100 Hammer, 125 VPA and175 VPA.  That 145 hammer did a full on hit on a 100# rock at about 20 yd. after I shot just over a ground squirrel.  Very durable head.

I have a pack of 125 and 160 regular plain ol' flat nose blunts just waiting on me to make up some shafts to go stumpin'. You are not alone. I do also have some hex blunts, judos, bunny busters? ( the ones with the back end all twisted), rubber blunts and .357 cases. I was forcasting a long winter....

RFA Talons now.  The most accurate, well built, lethal small game head I've found to date.  The arrow will break before the Talon does!

Check this out-

 

This is a blunt that holds a paintball, so when you are stumpin' with a blunt you can see where you hit.  Or if you have some crazy buddies and some light weight bows you could play cowboys and indians.

This is just a concept, but I should be getting it into production this year.

Paint ball arrows?  I like it!  If that head is real soft rubber to absorb a lot of shock from hitting harder stuff it would be great for no so soft stumps and logs.

Very cool concept, Blake. Will screw-in models be available?

I am going to design them with enough of a taper to accept a threaded adapter, and a 5/16" diameter so it should fit most arrows.
I am still working on the drawing, so bear with me, if I can work on it a little more, I will post another idea that I have in the morning.

I do like plain old blunts. They make a nice noise when they hit a stump and don't bury themselves TOO bad when I miss.
