Cool.  Looks like a nice head.  I'll have to pick some up when the glue-ons come out.

Tell me about these "Hammers".  I need something better on sqirrel and rabbit than the darn judo points.  The judos are fine for stumps, leaves, etc, but I have trouble making a clean kill on small game with them.  Need something with more punch or maybe some cut too.

Dan,
These work alot better than judos. They have fluted cutting edges, a ballistic point and are heat treated to keep them sharp. They grab really well and hold up to the punishment we trad guys dish out. Just look at the reviews of the ones that have tried them so far on the 3 Rivers website.

Thanks,
Jeff

Boomerang,
Thanks.  Yeah I just checked out the 3Rivers reviews.  I'm going to order several 145 grainers.  Looking forward to giving them a go.

Does anyone have any luck with washers behind fieldpoints? I've taken one bunny and it seemed to perform ok but during target practice they seem to get a little unstable between 18 and 20 yards. Input?

I just looked at them today on 3rivers and was hoping they would have some 250's.  Are they available on the website now?  Mark

The 250gr. screw ons should be shipped to them this week and we just started all the glue ons this week, so it will be a couple of weeks before they get them. It's up to them how they want to do the releases.

Thanks,
Jeff

celticknot, just get yourself screw in adaptors for the wood shafts and get some screw-ins.  3Rivers carries the adaptors too.  You can kill rabbits with anything...they are not very tough.

George thanks for the thought but i couldn't stand the thought of aluminum on wood arrows. Thanks again though.
