          If water and light detergent does'nt do the trick try water and meat tenderizer. Meat tenderizer will break down the blood.

                  Peroxide soak for broadhead, peroxide wash for shaft. Then rinse in water. Peroxide will rupture the blood cells and destroy the fibrin that forms the clot. Cold water rinse should be all you need. The peroxide will do the same thing in clothes.

                    You also need to rinse out the inside of the shaft, as blood gets in the shaft also.
                    Remove nock and point, run water thru shaft, then pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol down into shaft to dissipate water in shaft.
                    Clean,clean.

                            Warm water, dish soap and an old tooth brush! Also what Rocky said on cleaning the inside of the shaft.
