The Clark Frog Head, A frog hunting device for archery. it is 10" wide and and weighs a staggering 430 gr(dont let the weight fool you,we designed it that way.  it works in your favor. It is effective beyond belief. I hope the gang enjoys this device as much as we do

i know its hard to see how it actually functions from a video, It has what we call 4 spears,  4 frog holders,  and 4 frog pinners. The design allow the arrow to hang on to the frog, it gets "caught up" in the frog head really well.  The frog head in the video is for a wooden arrow the frog head simply slides over your field point. We have heads for every arrow type and we have one that you can screw in like a field point.  We aslo have an arrow that can go with the frog head that is over 60" long. You can use the frog head with or without the frog arrow. I always use the frog arrow at night, and a regular arrow during the day. The frog arrow is for shots at 10' or closer

This is the first place the public has viewed it. It is not online yet or in any stores. We are so proud of this thing. We hope to get a lot of kids into archery this way.
I used my daughters 7lb bow one night and killed 5 frogs. It doesnt take hardly any power to work

That head is HUGE. I would feel like I am cheating. Prolly works great though.
Relax,

It a very ethical and quick way to harvest a frog. When the frog is hit they are usually "DRT"
Dead right there.
