Default Archery Squirrel Suggestions

Hey Everyone, long time deer hunter, going to give squirrel a try now.....with my bow. I have a recurve but need a lot more practice so I'll be starting with my compound. I guess the biggest thing Im worried about is hunting point. I'll be doing a mix of ground sitting/stalk and some hunting from my bowstand. Winter bow starts in January and I wanted to bring some squirrel arrows with me this time. Thanks a bunch!

Hard to beat the Judo head but rubber and steel blunts are also good.

Squirrels with the bow can become quite an expensive hobby, especially if you use any tip that will go through a squirrel. Judos and Blunts work great, assuming that they hit pretty similar to whatever broadhead you use for deer. I recommend testing them at several distances and angles and becoming very familiar with how they shoot before you end up wasting a lot of arrows!

I've never tried, but I'd choose judo tip if I did.

Good Luck!
