A broadhead is provided that is versatile, reusable, and revolutionary in the hunting industry. Various embodiments of the broadhead provide interchangeable technology to accommodate multiple hunting situations by being able to switch between fixed and expandable blades. In some embodiments, the broadhead is provided with the ability to accept a variety of different types of tracking devices in conjunction with a removable barb to allow the use of innovative trackable technology.

A tracking system for use with an arrow including a base unit defining an open central section; a holding magnet positioned within the open central section; and a sending unit that includes an electronic circuit; a main body section affixed to an electronic circuit; projections extending from the main body section into the open central section and at least partially surrounding the holding magnet; and a projection extending from the main body section and ending in a point; where the electronic circuit includes a battery and is constructed to emit a tracking signal when activated and the electronic circuit includes a magnet switch element such that the electronic circuit is maintained in a deactivated state as a result of the magnetic field established by the holding magnet.

Inserts for coupling a broadhead and an arrow shaft or a crossbow bolt, wherein an internal thread pattern in the tube is different from an external thread pattern at an end of the broadhead.

A glueless shaft joining system, apparatus and method are disclosed. A base insertable into the hollow interior of the shaft can include a plurality of flexible fingers separated by a slot defined between each of the adjacent flexible fingers. The interior of the base is hollow and includes a threaded portion adjacent to the distal end that extends inwards in a proximal direction. A set screw can be inserted into the threaded portion of the hollow interior of the base. The set screw includes a threaded head portion and a non-threaded tail portion that diverges as it extends away from the head portion. The tail portion deflects the flexible fingers laterally outwardly as the set screw is advanced in the proximal direction through the base. A component, such as a broad head or arrow nock can be coupled to the insert as desired.

The layered graphic decal arrow consists of an arrow base, decal, and a finishing layer. Two separate curing processes are used to create the arrow to prevent adhesive from penetrating the decal thereby degrading the visual appeal of the arrow. The decal is applied to the arrow base, or printed on the arrow base, then flashed at a first temperature then cured at a second temperature. After cooling the arrow, a finishing layer is applied to the arrow. A uniform pressure is applied around the finishing layer to hold it in place while curing. After curing, the uniform pressure is removed, the arrow is polished to remove undesired markings and the arrow is cut to the desired length. In an alternative embodiment, the finish layer is a polymer coating applied to the arrow without the need for uniform pressure.
