Planing to do some Grouse hunting. What arrow tips should I use and should I use flu-flus?

thanks

I have shot a bunch of them over the years with Judos and flu flus. They make for some good eating!

I have used just about everything in the way of small game heads on Grouse, as of right now I am shoot Game nabbers and Hammer head they do a great job.

I used Ace Hex Heads on a dozen or so grouse in Ontario a few years ago. Nothing but excellent results.

I've never shot any partridge with a bow yet but this is what I'd use.Really cannot beat Hexs for Small gaming!

I use old wooden arrows with flu flus, and a.357 case for the head, kills um flat out dead.

I like to use rubber blunts- because there are so many rocks here ..
THE VOICES HAVEN'T BOTHERED ME SINCE I STARTED POKING THEM WITH A Q-TIP.

KAYO

Thanks guys.

I,ll just pick up a A variety of tips and try them out. So do flu-flus arrows have the same flight as regular feather arrows? Do they slow the arrow down? Or should I stay with regular feathers?

KAYO, I do a lot of small game hunting and grouse are at the top of my list. Great eating.  Not all grouse are the same and some take a good deal more killing than others.  Depending on your set up and whether or not you are shooting Ruffed or the big Blues, make sure you've got enough arrowhead to get the job done.

I shoot our Talon small game heads at all types of small game with great results.

I like to carry one flu-flu with me when I elk hunt that is pretty much ear marked for grouse.  Often the Ruffs will give me one shot on the ground, then head for the trees.  Flu-flus are great for grouse in trees.  

Of course, if I miss with the flu-flu chances are I'm going to cut loose with a regular arrow if it didn't fly.  In that case I try to line the bird up with the tree trunk.  Have fun!

KAYO

Good stuff Stan.  :thumbsup:  

thanks

Like StanM said, all grouse aren't created equal. These big buggers (Sage Grouse) have laughed off any blunt I've shot them with.

A good pic, Charlie.  You da man.

Never shot sage grouse but I have killed countless blue grouse and ruffed with blunts and judos.
