Screw-in Arrow Field Point
Every experienced archer knows that the point is the part of the arrow that suffers the most upon impact. Whether it is wear and tear from frequent shooting into a target butt, or an unfortunate hit on a harder obstacle, the ability to easily replace the point is invaluable in modern archery. This screw-in point weighing 100 grains (approx. 6.5 grams) represents the absolute standard for most carbon and aluminium arrows equipped with an internal threaded insert. Thanks to the blackened finish, it looks discreet and eliminates glare. Its aerodynamic shape ("bullet" or "field" type) ensures stable flight and is also gentle on target butts, making for easy retrieval. Always keep a few in stock so your training does not have to end because of one "stray" shot. Further product information ...
Screw-in Arrow Field Point – 100 Grain
Modular System and Usage
Unlike historical or cheap wooden arrows, where points are glued directly onto the shaft, this model uses a modern system of screwing into an insert (a sleeve glued inside the arrow tube). This gives you a huge advantage: you can experiment with point weight to tune the arrow's dynamics (FOC), or quickly swap a target point for a broadhead (where permitted) without having to change the entire arrow. This specific model is ideal for target and 3D archery.

Historical Context: From Blacksmith to Lathe
In times when archery decided battles, the point (bodkin, broadhead) was a blacksmith's work, fastened to the shaft using a socket and resin or glue. It was a permanent assembly. If the point broke, the arrow was often a write-off or required difficult repair. The present day has brought standardisation and engineering precision. While the threaded system is a modern convenience with no deep historical basis, it follows the age-old desire of archers to have equipment that is as versatile and easily repairable in the field as possible.
Maintenance and Practical Tips
To ensure your screw-in points serve you well and do not get lost in the target, I recommend the following:
- Check Tightness: Vibrations upon release and impact into the target can gradually loosen the point. Check the tightness of the points with your fingers before every set of shots.
- Use Wax: You can lubricate the point's thread with string wax. This prevents it from loosening on its own, and at the same time ensures the point will be easier to unscrew in the future (protection against corrosion).
- Safety: Even though this is a target point, it is still a dangerous part of a weapon. Never aim at people or animals.
I recommend checking whether you also have spare nocks in stock, as they are the second most frequently damaged part of an arrow.
