I used to hunt squirrels with my bow when I was a kid,Around 11 or 12.I used a recurve and a compound and wooden and aluminum arrows.before I knew you could buy blunts I would make them out of a bolt.I would just insert the bolt into the aluminum shaft and tape it with electrical tape.Worked great.I also had a small dog that would stop and point at a squirrel and wait till I shot.Then would go and bark at my arrow when it landed, unless I hit the squirrel then he would go after it and sometimes get bit on the nose.
