Title: PDP Game Nabber heads
Post by: Slickhead on September 09, 2013, 08:07:00 AM
Anyone used these?
Whats your opinion?
Looks like you could sharpen the flared metal with a file to increase trama to small game.

Ive done the same with 38 brass but it bends easy.

I have some. They look cheap to me. It is a stamped piece of metal glued on an adapter. The fins sticking out at the bottom are very short and twisted and would be not worth the time to sharpen due to the large diameter of the head itself. Basically the fins grab in the hide stopping penetration. I personally like the VPA SGT small game thumper better. You can get them from Big Jim.

A lot of gimmicks, I kill lots of small game I mean a real lot. I use regular old blunts! Nothing to hang or get hung up On brush On its way to The critter and good penetration, dont waste your hard earned money. Shawn

The Game Nabbers are devastating on small game and are cheap.  The only thing I don't like about them is the little fins are constantly packed with dirt and mud to pick out.  No need to sharpen them they work great on small game just as they are.

Like Shawn said there are LOTS of good small game options available.

I like them they shoot strait and don't stick in trees

I saw on  thread where a guy made his own
He ground a field tip to a chisel point and cut the fins with tin snips.
