Default Small Game Hunters

What heads, or combination of heads, do you use for small game such as rabbits and squirrels? I have some Judo points but was curious what other people use.

I've used blunts from saunders in the past with good results. I've also used old Satellite BH's. Don't use something you would like to retrieve.

I've used the rubber shocker points. They give quite a thumpto a rabbit. Also they don't bury to bad in grass when you miss.

I use rubber blunts, judos, steel blunts backed by steel washers... On my cedar arrows, a .38 or .357 shell casing with finishing nails stuck through the sides - kind of a homemade judo point. Ace has a newblunt called the Hexblunt that looks really good, but I haven't tried them yet.


I've used the ol' Snaro point for many yearsfor hunting quail and mourning dove.

Just remember if you shoot a modern high speed bow some of the home made stuff may be dangerous. A bow that shoots in excess of 250 fps may not digest washers and bullets as well as a recurve or long bow. Arrows do funny things when you get them out of balance at high speed like shoot wild or come apart. I shoot washers behind my field points on my T Q Bows recurve but would never do it in my BOWTECH PATRIOT.
