I drilled and tapped both ends of a 10" piece of steel bar. One end I tapped for a field tip/broadhead (8-32 thread). The other end I tapped for a stop (5/16-12?), that end I bolted a big washer on for a stop. I had a piece of 1/2" copper with a 3/4" threaded female coupling, so I cut it to 6". You slide the copper over the steel bar, thread the bar on to the tip and use the slide as a reverse hammer. Typically you would want more weight on the handle, but this worked great. The broadhead (G5 Montac) was buried in my wooden back stop over 1/2" and popped out with 2-3 whacks.

You can buy a slide hammer, but I'm light on cash. Just make sure it comes with an 8-32 thread attachment.

No need to buy what you can make with a little ingenuity.

The Giants didn't do any better than I did at bowling. The wife even bowled better than I did. I can only hope the Jets beat the Cowgirls.....hunts2long

Yep the game was a bummer. I was at a sports bar with a friend ($10 buckets of Coors light = a good game regardless
)

The Jets gave us an exciting game, but I'd rather they took the lead early and made it less stressful. Needless to say I'm somehow a bit dehydrated this morning
. Romo found out that Revis didn't have any INT's last year, because everyone else is smart enough to not throw towards him

This one was tough without a lathe or drill press. My thread isn't quite straight as I'd like, but it works. Not easy to drill a straight hole in the end of a bar in a vice.

Key is to keep the arrows in the target STKA....
OHH Did I say that out loud.....ooooppppss
LOL J/k big guy, have lost many a point to a tree on a 3D course....
Neat idea, and WORKS is the key word here.
With the prices of heads and equipment, home made is just another way of saying frugal...
Watched the Jets game....Sad, will have to listen to our Chief cry all night at the meeting tonight.....

Actually they were all pass throughs
, not that they always are but so far this year no full misses. The center of my old target is a bit soft. This last broadhead was right up against the previous arrow so it went through the foam to easy. Unfortunately I hit the back of one broadhead with a second. I loose more that way than on deer, after deer I can reuse them.
