points come off?
El Destructo:
Tim....I started doing this with my Carbon Arrows...years ago...and it works just as nice on Wood and Cane...or Boo....as long as they have a Sealer...or finish on them for the Armorall to adhere to...they get really slick...you can pull all of them out by Hand from even the toughest 3-D Targets....

My friend showed me the Armorall trick a couple of years ago, I've always been too lazy to use it.
Tim B:
I used to use the hot melt glue as well because of ease in changing from field tips to broadheads but found no matter what you do when the arrow penetrates the high density foam targets it heats up the glue and the tips come off when pulling the arrow from the target. An epoxy or superglue would work much better with very few failures and you can still heat the field tips to get them off and change out to broadheads with both.

This time I drilled a bleder hole near the point to let the trapped air bubble out I also sanded the inside to rough em up and degreased them and used epoxy glue. Haven't had a chance to try them out but as soon as I do I'll let you guys know how it works,Ron

I promised an update on this method. IT WORKS REALLY WELL . I have fired these arrows probably two dozen times each and none has lost it's point. This will be my method from now on.Ronnie

Howdy Group,
Often, when folks are talkin' huntin', the subject of arrow penetration comes up. As you probably know, folks have found that increased arrow weight increases penetration.
But how about trying El D.'s ArmorAl suggestion to increase arrow penetration? It stands to reason that if ArmorAl allows the arrow to come out more easily, it should help the arrow go in more easily; greater penetration. ;)
What do you guys think? Are we on to something here?
All the Best,
Canoe
