Ordered 6 glue on Cliff heads the other day from Kustom King Archery. They are legal to hunt with here in MT. so I will give them a try next season. I thought they looked pretty cool,  and I've never had a bad experience w/ a sharp zwickey.

Canyon

A agree they look cool and will likely work well. Which states are they legal in? They are illegal in AZ.

Canyon, I'm not sure what all states they are legal in. I just checked our regs. and saw nothing in there about barbed broadheads. Does anyone know what makes barbed heads illegal? With all the junk broadheads out there guys are shooting it don't make much sense to me.

just a guess, but in our State, lawmakers are NOT knowledgeable about anything hunting!!!!!  They put the damn rifle season during the peak of the rut!!!

Where I'm at it doesn't say they are illigal..All I can find is our arrowhead must be metal,7/8" wide and can't be poisonous...Nothing found anywhere about can't be barrbed but if someone does find it post me the imfo cause I checked and rechecked the web,the 2011 hunting manual and couldn't find that we can't so I'm getting some even if I don't hunt with them...No Law you can't buy them...   "[dntthnk]"

They are neat looking heads anyway, they are legal in MO as far as I can tell.

Warrior, you got that right about the ones who make the laws. We are pretty fortunate here with the FWP willing to take some input from the Montana Bowhunters Association about archery regs.IMO.....

Those are neet looking heads. Looks to be legal in Wyo. All our regs say is that the broadhead must be steel and a minimum cut width of 1".

Legal now in Illinois.  Reference to non-barbed was removed a few years ago.

If you can use a Rage legally in your state I would think that Barbed heads would be legal cause those mechanical things look like a Carp fishing head to me.

I see nothing in the Wisconsin bowhunting regulation banning their use either.

I've been searching and all I can find in Michigan was a minimum of 7/8" width. Can any Michigan archery experts confirm or deny this?

Legal in Arkansas and Louisiana. I agree don't know why those political cry babies would outlaw a barbed head. If I don't get a complete passthru I want the broadhead in the animal to do as much damage as possible.

Canyon

I may have been wrong. After checking the latest AZ regs the only requirment is that broadheads have a metal cutting edge with a width of 7/8". Wish I had a set of the older regs to help me figure out if I am loosing my mind or not.

Looks to be legal in Indiana. But we cant have poison or explosive tips   :nono:
Some people are like Slinkies ... Not really good for anything,
But they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

i think most of those rules are refereing to harpoon type heads where you can atatch a rope or lead to an animal,  thats just what i think. so i would not abide by that rule. thats just me!

Uncle Buck

I Googled " barbed broadheads illegal" and came up with a list of states where they are not legal. Please bear in mind that this did not come from official State sources but from another forum discussing the VPA turkey head. The states where they are said to be illegal are: AK,IA,KS, MA, MN, MT, NY, OR, PA, SD, TN And Alberta Canada. This list is probably not complete, But I hope it helps. Some states only ban barbed broadheads for big game, so in those states you could still use them for rabbits and squirells.

Ground Hunter

From what I see in the Texas regs., Texas has dropped any mention of barbed broadheads in the hunting regulations.  So, if not specifically prohibited - they look to be legal in Texas.  If someone knows different I'd like to hear it?
