    Judo points - sharp or blunt?

    Looking at putting a couple judo points in my quiver for squirrel/target practice while in the stand. When I look em up, there's some that are blunt and some that are sharp pointed. Which would work best for squirrels, or is there a better option? I shot a squirrel the other day with field points, but after pinning him down and doing decent internal damage with 2 arrows, I still had to finish him off with a Rage. Looking for something to take em out with one shot.

      That’s what arrow #5 with an old broadhead or a broadhead I don’t care about is for

        Either old broadhead you aren't worried about, or these



        They work great on grouse.

          G5 small game heads are great . They are a little pricey though.

            Blunt, you dont want it burring deep into a tree branch,root or anything else.
            Judo's....always a good time

              these are great little points. They do a good job of grabbing on flipping over too so you don't lose an arrow.

                This. G5 SGH...well designed and tough. Or even the old style with the springs on all four sides to grab. I use them when we go leaf shooting on the lawn.

                  Made a bushing for my bow and keep a Judo point in it for when I need it.

                      That's handy!


                      Thanks for all the input from everyone. I guess I was hung up on needing the point for penetration, but it looks like the impact is what I need. Probably gonna start off with just the plain judo points, then maybe work my way up to the g5.

                        Judo point will pass through a 50# hog.

                            Cut the point off of a field tip and put a 1/4" washer behind it. Makes a good thumper.

                              I'd rather use a blunt of some sort on short range small game. It'll kill 'em as dead as relying on one to "cut" and are generally easier to recover.
