    Personally, I have found that blunt works fine if you do a head/neck shot and don't mind chasing them down to wringing their neck. But I do tend to loose a lot of blunt arrows as they sometimes just ricochet off somewhere. As for the less expensive and loose less arrow route, I have found the G5 SGH works pretty well, even for breast shots. And old non-sharpened broadheads gets the job done quite well. Also having a good backdrop is a must. Had a grouse fall off a cliff with the arrow impaled before.

    Snaro from now on. Last year, I shot 2 blue's with blunt. Both of them flew away with the arrow halfway through them. I recovered one and lost the other. I think I had a luminock on the one I lost. So GT Velocity XT + Blunt + knockturnal = $35. Now I use an extra long arrow with snaro. The arrow drop fast, but the shotgun effect compensate for that. Try to aim for the head and it's done deal!
