A simple cheap broadhead dart...

I like it! Creative!

Nice find. That dart looks good.

Good idea!

I like the cone also!

Awesome idea. I'll keep it in mind when I need some new darts.

Nice dart!

Very nice dart! How did you make the cone?

I think this cone is from a B-D pen needle. Diabetics and some others use them.

Yes,the cone is a B-D pen needle cover nice ready made cone no modifying required in a .625 tube BG. They are somewhat britle can break if u hit the cone hard or robin hood them. But they are easy to replace and make dart fabrications a breeze. And are free if u know someone who uses them,most people just throw them away.

I have been saving mine since I learned about this.

Thanks. Fortunately, or unfortunately in this case, I don't have any close insulin dependent friends or relatives. Duct tape cones for me until I find a better method. I saw where Canterbury, from the pathinder school, uses wirenuts for cones but gotta think that makes them tail heavy.

Yah,you are better off sticking with tape cones, i use them also work great.. those wire nuts are heavy and throw the darts balance off and tend to slap your target sideways.You got it right,dart weight and balance make a big difference in performance.

ive had limited success with those, to the point of a dart with one actually bouncing off a red squirrel. since then ive been using the #11 exacto blades with far better results.
