I have just started using my bow for hunting . I like small game . Mostly , bunnies . What tip would you recomend ? Thanks . I used some "judo" tips (I think thats what theyre called) ,,, They didn't work how I want'd them to . These tips had a severe over penatration problem .

I've used judos for a long time. Game Tracker has a similar tip that has 5 spring arms and a larger blunt that I actually like better. I've also used rubber blunts like the Bludgeon. Lately, I've been thinking about giving the Ace Hex head a try.

I have these ones right here. What are those Tiger Claws? Any links? If you want a 100gr tip you might try the muzzy's that go behind the tip with 75gr points. I think these here will do good. If you want to spend more money you might try the SGH by G5.

I second the vote for the SGH(small game head)by G5

MAYBE A RUBBER BLUNDT WOULD WORK FINE, WITH LOW POUNDAGE ON THE BOW CAUSE ONCE I WAS HUNTING BUNNIES AND SUDENLY SOME TURKEYS SHOW UP AND MEN THE BLUNT MAKE A HUGE 1 INCH HOLE, WITH MY HOYT SUPERTEC AT 73 MORE THAN 300 FPS

That's an old trick some guys do with wood arrows, when they've got a bunch of empty casings and need some blunts. Glue a .38 spl or .357 magcasing on the arrow, then drill holes through the casing and shaft big enough to glue finishing nails in them. Makes sort of a homemade judo point.

And yes, they really do work. You could probably do the same with a carbon arrow by using a .32 mag casing. I'd do it with a beater arrow though, not a good one.
