nutters?

<< < (2/4) > >>

Pat B:
Here are 2 nutters. One is on a 11/32 cedar shaft the other is on a hardwood shoot shaft. I believe the nuts are 1/4" or so and I like a drop of super glue on the threads after installing the nut.       Pat

On my 11/32 shafts I use a 3/8 nut.  Just tight enough to screw itself into the wood a bit.  They dont weigh as much as a field point but I compensate by leaving the shaft a little long.  I have got to tell you that I dont know how they do on squirrels since I have not hunted them in Montana but man do they do the job on cottontails.  Three for four last year and all were very quick kills.  Nutter hit like a truck. 

Hillbilly:
You can straighten fairly major crooks with heat or straighten out slight bends by using a smooth metal rod or hook to burnish and compress the outside of the bend.

I use two 3/8" nuts, and they weigh 160 grains, just like my field points. Check American Woodcrafters website. They have birch dowels for $22.00/100 or so. At that price, you can afford a few culls! Those birch dowels make a nice heavy arrow, and with the two nuts they hit like a hammer.
