Three BH's when hunting deer and/or turkeys.

Years ago rattled in my 1st buck, which was leaving my area. I fell apart, dropped the 1st arrow, missed point blank with the 2nd and spined him with the 3rd. Nothing to brag about but sometimes confessions make the next opportunity turn out a little smoother. I have harvested three deer and two turkeys that permitted a 2nd shot opportunity.

Depends on which quiver I am using.  With a bow mount quiver I carry four broadheads and one judo.  With my back quiver I carry five broadheads and two judos.

I will have 6 broadheads and 2 judo points and on a couple of occasions I have had to sit down and resharpen all of the broadheads after getting sidetracked by grouse, squirells, or rabbits while hunting. One time when I was hunting elk a Pine Marten got curious and by the time he was done demonstrating that he could dodge my arrows quite easily along with some just plain bad shooting on my part I had to call it quits for the day because I didn't have any arrows left in my quiver!

I usually start out the season with 4 broadheads and then later go down to 3. I missed a doe 4 times once...all under 20yds., and have shot twice a lot of times (twice last season). Think I will carry a dull broadhead this yr and start taking a practice shot each hunt. It fairly rocky where I hunt, but every now and then can find a soft spot to shoot at.

5 broadheads and 2 hammerheads in a Safari Tuff quiver.  I would rather have to many arrows than not enough.
