Ok, I have to admit that I never stump shot,I use the kids old basket balls,soccer balls and kick them around in the field and shoot at them moving and still.So what type of heads do you use when stumping?   :coffee:

Judos are about the best I've used.. Tough as they come and I've never lost an arrow using them.

Just about anything. Field points, judo, blunts. I even make my own out of screw-in field points with 1/8 inch rod in an X pattern. I drill two 1/8 inch holes in the head at 90 degrees to each other, then epoxy two one inch long 1/8 inch rod into each hole. (Don't do it with glue on points on wood arrows. They'll break)

Old doesn't start until you hit three figures...and then it's negotiable

I had a pair of judos on arrows when I had the wheels and the fingers would break when they hit the ground.Are they made a little stronger now?

I've never had any judos break LPC. Shot rocks, green stumps, trash cans, all other manner of stuff.

I discovered that steel glue on blunts and ash shafts are the way to go for stumping
Heads Carolina, Tails California...somewhere greener...somewhere warmer...or something soon to that effect...

Just some normal plain jane blunts...

for me, judos are the ONLY way to go roving!  i make sure the judo points match the weight of my broadheads, too ...

If small game season is in, I'll go with either Hammer's or Hex's, if it's not in, Judo's all the way.

Judos and Ace Hex with the nod going to the Hex.Judo arms will break but you have to really try.I have some that have been shot 1000 times maybe and theyre fine.They shoot just fine with only 3 arms anyway.The Hex heads get through brush a whole lot better are still pretty good at staying right where the hit after the concave front scoops mud and dirt.

Judos are great, as are 38 special cases. I have also discovered the Head Saver that 3Rivers sells. The best $2.70 you will spend if you are doing a lot of stumping . They have saved me losing heads that break off when you hit something that is a bit too tough.

For hunting distance just about any tip will work for placement purposes.  Judos, Hammers, Hex Heads, Nutters, etc.  I like plain old screw in blunts too...they are cheaper than specialized heads and work fine.

Rob DiStefano

the thing is, judos hardly ever (never ever, for me) get lost 'cause the don't snake under grass and brush like all the other roving heads.  yeah, judos cost more, but so does a good shaft.  i'd rather save the whole arrow.  ymmv.

Rob,  I use the steel adapters on mine also but I'm curious about the nut.  What size is that?  How much weight does it add?  Do you glue it on?

thanks,
Ken
Chasing my kids and my degree for now but come next fall the critters better look out.  ;)

Judos, Hammers, and Hex Heads for me.  Judos don't have alot of weights for standard screw in so I only have 125's.  Hex heads are lower cost than Hammers, but I like the Hammers better because the seem to grab stuff just a little better.

Can anyone post pictures of their homemade stumpin/smallgame heads. I like the idea of home made stuff, especially those wingnut varieties.
