Default Just a thought

Ok well i was shooting the Adder points if yall know what those are behind my feild points and they flew awesome and they are so cheap i got to thinking and then wondering if theyd work for deer? I would easily understand if they wouldnt but i know they work for small to medium game. They seem to pack a good punch but not that great of penetration.

You can see what they look like by going here:

Negative.

Nothing but shaving sharp broadheads should be used for big game.

Give Bailey a break, I don't know why those wouldn't work on a squirrel or a small bird (don't turkey hunt, but given how elusive they are wouldn't want to take my chances with that thing).

When younger (about 15), using only field tips, I killed a bunch of nutria rats and a squirrell, but I will never do that again (long story) involving squirrel attacking me (after going to pick him up).
No, I did not do a triple lutz and shoot him between the eyes with my explosive tipped arrow as he attempted to gnaw on my leg .

Oh, I now see on my edit that he was asking about using them on deer. Screen did not scroll over.
No, I cannot see using those on deer, they are just souped up field tips.
I'm sure that they are capable of killing a deer, indians did it with far less,
but unless going primitive (which this product is not intended), why use something inferior to a broadhead?

They'd be illegal to use on deer(or other big game)in Pa.--probably every other state too
