Trocar™
tip with stainless steel ferrule and push/pull/turn quick-release mechanism. Holds reliably until released. Shorter design for increased strength and faster penetration.
We are shooting 20-25 large carp per outing. Wire barb works much better than the flat blade on other models. The flat blade has a tendancy to plane out the arrow when shooting at a flatter angle so the target is missed. It also bends easy when shooting a large amount of fish. After changing to a new tip, (the old one had to be cut off), increased the amount of captures and release is just as easy. No planing on flat angles and the only fault we can find with the wire barb is that after numerous kills we finally broke a wire barb and can not find a replacement without buying a new tip.
