Abstract
A bleeder attachment for arrows which fits over the arrow shaft directly behind the arrowhead. The bleeder attachment body may be bulbous or any other suitable shape, and includes a plurality of barbs which extend outwardly and are disposed toward its front end. A lip on the front end of the bleeder attachment body may be used to secure the bleeder attachment to the arrow by disposing the lip between the arrowhead and the arrow shaft. Grooves may be provided on the outer surface of the bleeder attachment body to promote fluid drainage. The bleeder attachment assures quick and sure killing of an animal hit by an arrow of this invention and is readily removable from the arrow.
