I'll be using Judos and Barta Blunts for small game. What about yall?
plain old blunts and judos
ace hex and judos for me
Ace hex and Magnus blunts with bleederblades. Not that I will hit fur. They always jump and run at the last minnit, I always end up sitting there laughing.
Killdeer :biglaugh:
Killy, why don't ya come to my Bunny Hunt in Feb. It should not take ya too long to drive here. I like Ace Hex Blunts, Judos and regular old wingnuts if I shoot wood and blunts as well! Shawn
wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiingnutters!!!!
and a judo
I would love to, but it would be February in New York. Aren't there some minefields like New Jersey and the like in between me and you? And you would hurl this frail female out upon the treacherous roads in such a heartless time of year?
Not only that, but fresh in my supervisor's mind is the memory of the turmoil that occurs every year in November, and the empty ache that takes forever to heal, the result of my three week absence as I pursue my soul in the hunting woods of the Virginia Alleghenies. I know she mourns during my quest.
No, I must stringently meter my time, as a miser pinches golden dust into the pan of his scale, as there are so many things in the budget and only so much time allotted me. I would have to give up ATAR, or Baltimore, or the opening salvos of the Season of the Chase which is the Columbus Day hunt, or perhaps the revelry of spring wildflowers and warblers, symbols of rebirth and the raw strength of new life returning to my huntlands over Memorial day.
Which marker of the seasons do I forgo, in order to risk death and arrest on the nations highways? No doubt, the comrades that I would meet and grow to love as brothers of the bow would well be worth the risks, and the experience of beagley rabbit hunting would give me thrills to raise the hairs on arms and neck for the rest of my metered days. I would fain fly on winged feet to New York, arriving Mercurylike to frolic in the field, like faeries in the light of the moon. But which outing do I forgo, Shawn?
"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth."
Me being me, I just stood there and dreamed.

One JUDO is it....then the broadheads come out. ;)
Gamenabbers, judos and three blade Bodkins.
Judo's, Ace Hex heads, and Old Broadheads.
judos, hex heads with scorpios and some old broadheads with scorpios.
I like plain old steel blunts the best. We hunt rabbit alot here in Jan, Feb. and I shot at least 50 rabbits this past year. In my opinion the blunts worked the best on cottontails, and a broadhead is really almost mandatory for jackrabbits.
I like the blunts for cottontails because they usually penetrate through the rabbit, but they dont cause too much damage. I find that judos usually penetrate on cottontails, and then cause a really nasty would channel that ends up ruining meat. The claws end up dragging dirt and hair all through the jagged would channel also. I'll leave the judos for stump shooting.
Hex heads and judos.
i had too many passthrews when i shoot rabbits with a hex head, then i get blood all over my feathers and it makes a mess.
i like judos and the new sgh by montec
Highly modified field point. I havn't found anything to beat it yet.
Ace Hex Heads and homemade small game points.
Zwickey Judos and home made 357,lead, 3/8 brass ferrul blunts...
Hey Shawn,
Do you hunt in front of hounds?
Killy, would that we could all decline with such grace and elegance.....and humor, too!
Tarantulas,Montec SGH,and when they're all gone- out comes the slingshot
Ace Hex heads, old Ace broadheads, and some judo points. If the fine people at Ace Archery made something like a judo point I would be using that.
Tim
Hex heads and steel blunts for grouse and bunnies.
Mike
ace hex this year for sure
Judos, grasshoppers behind 100 grain field point, good old blunts, and wingnutters on some woodies.
Who makes that claw looking mean SOB? I want to try those and hex blunts too.
i usually either put a blunt on ...or screw a nut
on the end .
jake
Tarantula's !!!
what is a tarantula?
Hex heads, nutters and a judo for playing.
Hey John,
can you show us some pics of your modified field points? I'm always interested in home made small game heads.
judos and maybe Kondors.
Used 38 Spl. Brass cases, Epoxyed onto POC Shafts....ONESHOT... :) :) :)
Judos, field tips with Adder points.
Judo's.
For me, a set of arrows is 5: one Judo, four broadheads in the quiver.
Normally shoot Judo's. I bought some Ace Hex heads while at the Tenn. shoot this year gonna give them a try. bretto
Judo's for me.
Ace Hex heads for most things, and blunts with blades for squirrels.
I use these explosive heads I have developed and...just kiddin'.Judos,hex blunts and rubber blunts here.
I have a can full of .38 special brass glued on to screw-in inserts. But I had some cash burning a hole in my pocket so I picked up some of the G5 small game heads. I haven't shot anything with them yet, but they sure look like they'd get the job done!
Magnus I broadheads for me.
ill be shooting my own patented "9mm-shell-casing-glued-to-an-aluminum". works fine on bunnys and bushytails. i can even remember a muskrat that met his demise due to a well place shot from my long bow. Believe it or not those little buggers taste great if ya fry em up right. Nuthen like munchn on a muskrat leg while on the the trap line.
Judo's for me too! But I am trying to get some nutters ready by then...really want to give them a try
Jake
Ian- a "tarantula" is a rubber bludgeon with the webbing removed from between the "legs".
Not sure where to find it here on TG but there is a thread about 'Manny's Tarantulas' somewhere...they stop really fast in the grass. they bounce well off hard surfaces, but still deliver lots of shock on impact.
My fourth arrow in the quiver will carry a broadhead during elk season, for the grouse I hope to see. Any other times it'll be a judo.
The judo also goes in my backpack during elk season for stumping in camp. It gets screwed onto the grouse shaft.
