Judo points
 

First off I love them they dont go flying anywhere and I havent lost and arrow yet with them.

My question is will one kill a rabbit? I want to know what you people use them for I wasnt to use them to kill rabbits/any small varmit. Has anyone used them ?

My second question is if they cant kill small game will the small game head be as good at stopping teh arrows from goign in the ground and losing them? Or is there anyother solution to help me get my target practice in on small game without lossing arrows?

RE: Judo points
 

I use G5'd small game head. You wont loose an arrow, and they will kill what every you hit with them. Everything from ground squirells all the way up to ground hogs or even a raccoon.

RE: Judo points
 

I have always used my practice tips,they work good for me

RE: Judo points
 

Yeah by practice tips ding in a low angle shots goign under teh grass and leaves.

RE: Judo points
 

The blunt force trauma from a judo point, provided square-on, solid impact, should be more than enough to kill a rabbit.

RE: Judo points
 

i have used the judo points for small game like gophers. They blast right through em and leave a huge hole. I have yet to get a rabbit with one but i'm sure they will work just fine. I have also shot prairie chickens with them with great results. Judos or the g5 s.g.h are great. can't go wrong with either.

RE: Judo points
 

Judos don't even slow down when going through a rabbit and leave a huge ragged hole. My vote would be for a G5 SGH.

RE: Judo points
 

Not sure what your trying to say?

RE: Judo points
 

I've used Judos off and on for over 20 years. Killed cotton tail rabbits, fox squirrels, gray squirrels, red squirrels, chipmunks, feral cats, and ground hogs.

Have also used the G5 SGH's, they work just as well but are ridiculously priced.

Now I use Saunder's Bludgeon Points. MUCH cheaper and work as well as the other two.

Here in Maine; Judos- 2 for $7
G5 SGH's- $7 each
Bludgeons- 4 for $8

I use to keep a bludgeon tip in my quiver for practice at vermin. I shot a racoon dead square in the chest with it at 18 yards, knocked the piss out of him but he took of running and was nowhere to be found. That was out of a bow producing about 76 foot pounds of energy so I know it had to hurt. Now I use G5 small game head, yeah they cost more but last alot longer than any judo point I have ever seen.

RE: Judo points
 

a Judo point will do the job just fine - taken several rabbits, etc through the years

RE: Judo points
 

yeah you definately want the G5 SGH, the standard spring style judos will not last long after repeated shots in the ground. the G5 is the same as the judo as it also will not burry itself.

RE: Judo points
 

The price diffecnce is so great that ill buy a new set of judos if they break im a poor college student.

RE: Judo points
 

One thing I have found with the judo points is with a fairly fast bow, the springs only last for a couple of shots. If you do alot of vermint practicing you will save money in the long run going with SGH's. Specialy considering after the springs are shot on a judo the arrows will get burried in grass.

RE: Judo points
 

i use judo and small game heads for gophers but like the small game heads best.they do more damage and dont seem to whistle as much.thus the gophers dont seem to duck them as much.and from what they do to gophers im sure they would kill a rabbit easy.oh and another bonus is that they dont get grass and guts built up on them like the springs on a judo.

RE: Judo points
 

Man, I'm amazed that didn't blow through that coon! I shoot 70#, had a bludgeon point blast right through a groundhog at 20 yards.

RE: Judo points
 

I guess the biggest problem that I have had with G5 SGH's besides the price, is that 1 or more of the 3 claws have snapped off. I sent 2 of the heads back to G5 and they were great and sent me two new ones. But those snapped also.

The bludgeons are way cheaper, won't bury in the grass and if they eventually brake, I'm not out of that much money.

These bludgeons pass right through everything from birds, squirrels and groundhogs.

Somerset, I was pretty suprised the bludgeon didnt do more to the coon either. The only time I have had a claw snap off on my SGH's is when I hit gravel and nothing fairs well against rock.
