I take a t nut and drill out the shaft. I then take a 125gr blunt and put the t nut behind the blunt. The t nut have prongs and act just like a judo. Similar to a previous post about fender washers.

Stumpkiller, what is the head, that is second from the right in your pic, called?
Second from the right is a Magnus Blunt.  It used the Magnus bleeder inserts.  Great for squirrels but the blade is delicate.

Third in from the right is a TigerClaw.  Absolutely devistating on squirrel and rabbits but getting it back out can be nasty.

Third in from the left is my facorite squirrel and bunny point.  It's called a GameNabber

Judo heads. Always regret it when I don't.

I like the Ace Hex.  It's indestructible but doesn't slide under the grass like a field pt or plain blunt.  Judos are great too, but I've busted a few and they are pricey.

Im with Fletcher on this one.Good ol Ace Hex blunts for stump shooting,however I love the Judo for grouse,especially the Condor.

I always liked judo's,  still do,  tried some Ace blunts, so far,these things work great. Been shooting in the yard here lately, which BTW is frozen tundra, they stop on a dime, even on ice, while the judo's and G5's keep sailing.

Judos most of the time but I have started to use the rubber slip on blunts also with great success.

I like Judos a lot though recently I have started carrying the small game points by VPA i really like them.

The nice thing about the Ace Hex blunts is that its diameter is slightly larger than the diameter of my carbons, making it easier to pull out of the occasional hard stump.

I like the judo, Ace hex, hammer, and the VPA SGT.  I use them all for stumping and small game at times depending on where and what I am shooting.

In the yard in the thick grass or field grass I like the judo because it grabs on well. The only issue is that they have very limited weights.   A lot of times they don't fit my set-up.

For small game, I like the hex heads especially for squirrels from a tree stand.  They have a little better penetration than some due to smaller frontal area and still do okay keeping from burying too bad. I also like them for shooting hay bales. They are a good value. They don't have quite as wide a weight range as some, but mostly they cover what you need. I don't use them just playing around shooting in thick grass. I have lost a few doing that.

I like the claw things under field points for small game.  A 175 field point with one of those claws under it gives me good penetration on a squirrel for kills, but helps on the misses to keep them from burying too deep in cover.  They are a real cheap option. I don't like them for actually shooting stumps unless you put them under a blunt.

The hammer is a great all around for small game and stumping.  Very durable and grabs better than a lot of other blunts on the grass.  They have a real wide range of weights.  I like them a lot and use them a lot.  

I love the SGT!  Wide range of weights, really grab on to stuff, and super durable. I don't know how you could make a better stumping head.  They may not be my top choice for squirrels because I like something that will get more consistent and better  penetration on those tough skinned little guys.

I have increased the weight of judos buy going to the glue on ones. I used a 75 gr. steel broadhead adapter and glued a 125 gr. judo with J-B weld and wham 200 grs. up front! With a footed carbon it's darn tough   :thumbsup:

Forest around here is pretty open & if you choose rotten birch stumps (there are lots) you can get away with field points on wood or bamboo & duplex nails in the bamboo - M.

RFA Talon Blunts/Small Game Points as well as Judo points.  Both can be used for the occasional squirrel or rabbit that pops up within range.

Judo points make loosing arrows MUCH more difficult and can make removing arrows a bit easier at times.

RFA Talons can handle harder stumps better without breaking or skip off a rock better.

I like to keep Talons on my regular fletched arrows and Judo points on my Flu-Flu arrows.  Any shot under 15-20 yards gets a flu-flu.  Any shot at eye-level or higher gets a flu-flu.  Almost all shots above 15-20 yards gets a regular arrow.
