The Clark Frog Hammer, A frog hunting device for archery. it is 10" wide and and weighs a staggering 430 gr(dont let the weight fool you,we designed it that way. it works in your favor. It is effective beyond belief. The frog gets caught in the trap. watch the small clip attached below. It will be online and for sale later today for the first time.  We have been hunting with it for 2 years and we are finally putting it on the market. We have  heads for wooden arrows or screw in for carbon and aluminum.  I hope the gang enjoys this device as much as we do.
cordially, jeremy

Would you happen to have a video of you actually arrowing a frog with your new frog "device"?

The head looks wicked, but all those wires sticking out all over are "screaming" at me.....those wires will bend on the first shot.

i love the questions, thanks. let me see if i can answer a few. The wires are designed to bend, the first set of wires that are curved get pushed out the way by the frog as it is being speared they are there to "hold the dead frog. They are tuogh,  your arrow will break before the Frog Hammer will. Just dont be shooting them at full draw into rocks. The frog hammer only requires about 20 lb to function. I usually just half draw my bow.  I guess You can break or bend them if you really really  try hard enuogh. It has never been an issue with us. I am uploading another video shortly that will hopefully answer a few questions. Keep the questions and comments coming.
cordially jeremy

With all the testing did you not get video of frogs being taken with it?

we spent countless hours hunting and testing, and we dont really have any video yet of us killing frogs. hindsight, i wish we had spent at least a little time filming.  We are a iittle ahead of ourselves, and didnt really think about it much. Were not really that smart and certainly not very good at filming anything.  I can get some video of it shot into a regular target? i will put that up shortly hopefully that help you see how it functions. Im filmimg every single hunt this coming frog season

That's a crazy looking head but I can see how well it would work for it's intend purpose.

How would a person carry a few of this in the field? Backwards in most bow or side quivers?

And then next lets see a couple videos of you sticking some frogs in the muck with this thing.

That's thinking out of the box there. I wish you well in your new venture.
