    Clean misses so far. But I would say is very possible to stick it in the tree. Misses are rocks and the chip came from a cattle guard. Skipped right into the pipe.

      Yeah thanks Ken for that gem. Yes. Yes we all know judos are good. Which again does not pertain to this post.
      No problem

      I thought this was a discussion? You stated what you thought of em. You said great for small game. I, in turn, stated what in my opinion is the best small game head. Other guys may prefer a blunt point. Others may agree with you on the plastic broadhead. No offense meant. The judo is a gem. They don't get buried up.

        Why would they have to be weighted. 100 grains is 100 grains plastic or metal right? Which weighs more 100 lbs of feathers or 100 lbs of lead? LOL!

          At a $1 or $1.50 they are a lot cheaper than a judo point. After that judo hits rocks and trees or whatever, those little legs don't bend back right. I don't have any and haven't shot any plastic broadheads, but they seem like a good alternative for rabbits and squirrels.

              I don't understand Disagree with What? It being a real head? Disagree that the squirrel is real? Or that the videos are real? Or that they are priced around 1.00 each. Or do u disagree with using them on large game such as pigs and deer? If so You would not be disagreeing with me or anybody else on this thread. So I don't understand completely who you're disagreeing with.

                I didn't personally use them and I'm not sure what the specs were on the bow used. I was just reporting on what was said during the hunt. I shot a 120 pound boar that had been wounded with one of the poly heads. The head had went through the back edge of the shoulder and barely into one lung. No bone was hit. My killing shot was from the other side in about the same spot. I was shooting a 45lb longbow with a 515 grain cedar arrow with a 125 grain Ace Standard 2 blade broadhead. I got a pass through.

                By the way, Good shooting on that squirrel.

                  That a person who believes in making a humane kill on a larger animal would consider using these for large game.

                    I bought a pack and I shot a hog with them. 59# recurve with 550gn arrow. Not good penetration. Would not recommend for larger game. Also, every time someone brings up the subject of these broad heads, there is an argument. I wouldn't use them on large game but each his own.

                        Seen em, held em, saw what happened when you hit a 80ish pound pig in the crease out of 50+ # bow. Not a fan. I could see you using them for small game... but I think they would come out to be more expensive than a zwickey or a simple wingnut and screw setup. Zwickeys are about $7-8 a head and can be hit with a file to bring back into working shape over an over. I have one that I have literally shot 50+ time in the South Texas dirt, bounced off rocks, etc and have just kept reshaping it (had to write bunny buster on it so I knew which one it was in the quiver.) Even so, I would still use it to put through a deer. I don't think I'd get that mileage with the plastic heads. As far as cost goes... the wing-nut heads I can make for about $0.25 and are devastating on the same sized game.

                        So I just don't see where in the market this head fits. Not suitable or reliable for big game, and not the cheapest, durable for small game.

                          I think I would rather hunt with a stone point than a plastic point.

                          Literally dirt cheap.

                            I got a 10pack of 100gr for 9.99 and a 10pack of 125gr for 9.99 off ColdSteels website. 20 broadheads for 19.98. Im gonna run'em through my recurve and compound. I might see what they do at 307fps into a tree for curiousitys sake...well maybe not...itll end up happening even when I aint tryin.

                            Ive got a mess of crow and squirrel that need thwackin. Im excited.

                              I tried sharpening the tips on those wing nuts with my belt sander AWESOME damage.....

                                Cajunginger blasted all the way through a big ol turtle at GRXH with one. Head did some damage and held up fine. I was pretty impressed.

                                But I'll be sticking with my slick tricks. Would be sick if I lost a deer due to a $1 broadhead.
