Why shoot a possum with maximas and rages in the first place?[&:]

The real heads fly identical to practice heads from my bow....i'd put good money on the scenario that you simply pulled on the shot.

probably a classic case of possum fever.[8D]

Opposums are actually immune to rabies. I have read this somewhere as well, soto my understanding they cannot be infected with rabies.
what does this have to do w/ broadheads??

monster;

Get you some cheap-o arrows and some bludgeon points if you want to critter shoot. I always carry one or two in my quiver... because to me shooting critters is as much fun as shooting deer. To each his own... but you won't ever catch me shooting something serious at anything other than a fox, bobcat, or deer.

I shoot A/C/C arrows with a Slick Trick, wrapped, and blazers..total cost is $20 a darn arrow..too costly for possums..but I have been know to waste one or two on a stupid woodchuck so I can't preach to you.
Speakin of possums..I had a DNR guy tell me once that a possum can't give you rabies as rabies affects the brain and a possums is too small to get rabies...don't know..anybody know? I know they are hard to kill. As a kid you could beat one in the head on your trapline, come back to get it and it would be gone. They have extremely strong jaws though and their bite is bad if you would get bit.
Thats why I spoke of opossums and rabies for the guy wondering.

I think the question was about the accuracy compared to the practice tip, not if everyone is so put off by someone shooting an opposum with a rage. Shoot away buddy, opposums are nasty, and its not sacreligious to shoot a rage at it either.

u need to invest in a judo tip and put that thing on your crappiest arrow if you wanna shoot at little critters. much cheaper to lose than a rage.
