        Has anyone out there used a fishing head that has a replaceable tip that would acomidate a screw on broadhead to obtain FOC?

          well you know how they are kinda tappered? How there is that bump where it gets thicker? That might limit penetration? Just thinking aloud, I really dont know, but that is definatly a interesting idea!

            How about tugston shoot in a carbon shaft with slicone so the spine doesn’t change just shooting in the dark.

                I don’t know about tungston in carbon, but serious expermintors like O.L. Adcock are using it successfully to increase FOC and also strengthen the front of wood shafts. Some places now sell drilling jigs to make it easy. I want to try this but where do we find tungsten rod of the right diameter (just under 1/8″)? I’m pretty sure that months ago somebody posted here that they had access to lots of it, cheap. If that person is still around, can we please here from you again? Otherwise, does anyone know a source? Thanks, bb

                  Tungsten welding rods might work. Call a welding shop to get dimensions / cost
