Now I've seen everything. And I'm disgusted

In the interest of class and decorum I won’t repeat what I said when I first saw a product in the latest %#}#% Guide…

I’m going try and upload photo. Hopefully it comes out. Anyway it seems some bright light has developed an arrow tip ( I refuse to call it a broadhead ) that you open up, screw in a .38 or .357 shell, screw it back together and have at it. I hope to God they’re considered illegal everywhere except for shooting stumps. And even then you KNOW some dope is going to hurt/kill himself or, worse, some bystander.

What scares me the most is when John or Jenn Q. Public non/anti says “look at what these Bowhunters are doing now..”

It never ends.

Yup. They were being highly touted with big screen (I mean BIG as in size of a DART program) at the Harrisburg Sports and Outdoor show, with video of guys hitting deer with .357 and I believe 44 mag and dropping then instantly…

I pitched a hissy fit and was told they’ve been around a while… just haven’t fizzled out yet.

Shortcuts are everywhere… or as one of the old personalities used to say, “There’s a sucker born every minute!”

So much for the quiet of the fall woods in bow season if it ever takes root…course, many of us thought that STRING guns would never make it into archery seasons on a wholesale basis for non-handicapped hunters, too, huh!:shock:

I have since done away with my dealings with them. I saw those things in a flier a couple of weeks ago.

Sorry about pic quality, I took with my phone.

Bruce and I discussed it.

Thx R2!

My tech skills are severely limited…guess that’s why I’m so hooked on this Trad thing of ours …:lol:8)

And the line gets blurred a little more! When will it stop?

An old fellow I shoot with sometimes likes to dream about the downfall of civilization. That justifies his crazy ideas that he likes to try… Like taping a shotgun primer to the end of his field point and shooting it at a board…

Arrow blew apart and the point and about 4 inches of shaft whizzed by his head and stuck in the tree. I told him that’s what he gets for his bad attitude.

Maybe something similar will happen to someone using these stupid things. I can’t believe they are legal simply because they are not 1 1/8 in wide and at least 2 3/4 in long.

The funny thing about these is, as anyone who hunts with a rifle or handguns knows, you still have to hit the deer where it counts. If you can do that, there’s no “advantage” to using these crazy things. dwc

Are there actually states where this sort of nonsense would be considered legal during archery season?

They certainly wouldn’t be in Idaho.
