With small game like bunnies and squirrels you want a blunt or judo tip, not a broad head. They don't kill them like a deer or bigger pest. They kill by shock. It transfers the energy into the animaland pretty much stuns them to death, and I'm sure breaks some bones at the same time. Possibly snapping the neck.

I have shot bunnies and squirrels with both broad heads (mechanicals) and blunt tips. The blunts work much better. It anchors them right on the spot usually. They don't run and bleed, they just flip over and die. Doesn't really matter where you hit them either, just aim for the middle of the body or front shoulder.

Now with a raccoon or woodchuck I don't know if I would use a blunt tip or not. Those are pretty decent sized and tough critters. You may just piss one off doing that unless you had a heavy arrow and a bow with mucho KE. I wouldn't want to do it with mine I know that.

I think large cut mechanicals would work good for those critters. Or better yet cheap good flying fixed heads. Take my word for it, shooting at woodchucks with a bow will result in some ruined arrows.
