Abstract
An arrowhead for use in the sport of archery hunting, which has a sharpened blade, pivotally mounted within a slot in the body of the arrowhead. The blade is held in a temporarily stationary position, centered within the slot, by a rubber o-ring, until such time as the arrowhead begins to penetrate the animal. Upon penetration the rubber o-ring slides rearward onto the arrow shaft, thus allowing the blade to pivot to either side of the arrowhead body. This design allows for decreased resistance when the blade strikes a hard surface within the body of the animal, thus the arrowhead achieves greater penetration into the body of the animal, causing a longer cut and therefore increased bleeding. This will result in a quicker and more humane kill.
