Georgia Hunter Education Course Practice Exam

Which type of arrowhead is typically used for big game hunting?

1. Target point

2. Field point

3. Blunt point

4. Broadhead

The correct answer is: Broadhead

Broadheads are the type of arrowheads typically used for big game hunting because they are designed to cause maximum tissue damage and ensure a quicker, cleaner kill shot. Broadheads have sharp blades that are designed to cut through the vital organs of an animal upon impact, leading to a more ethical and humane hunting experience. Target points are designed for target practice and are not suitable for hunting big game as they are not designed to cause the same kind of tissue damage as broadheads. Field points are also used for practice but are not as effective at causing the necessary damage for a quick and clean kill shot. Blunt points are typically used for small game or practice and are not designed for big game hunting.
