Look up “arrow puller.” I got this el cheapo and it’s fine for weak foam targets. @Reedmosser Doesn’t work well with bag targets. You may want to try one made of metal with a handle. If you can’t push the bolts through then you may be able to unscrew the shaft from the head(s), pull them out, mark the target where the heads are and figure out a way to fish the broadheads from the target. I’ve seen broadhead tools used to pull them out of targets. Just some thoughts. I don’t have a whole lot experience here. I shoot a Block target and a bag target.

@Reedmosser I forgot to add a link of the cheapo puller. I use something similar to this one.

Grab your arrow and get back to target practice with the October Mountain Products Arrow Puller. This soft, flexible arrow puller increases grip strength, so...

The best thing to do with a broad head which is embedded in a target it can be pushed through is to push it through. Then you just remove the point (they unscrew you know) and pull the shaft back out the way it went in to save wear and tear on the flights..
Really you should practice with field points that weigh the same as your broad heads.

Be careful using your leg to brace against target while pulling.
If the insert comes out of the arrow and your arrow releases from the target quickly - leaves a nasty scar...

When using an arrow puller or even when not using the arrow puller, try to twist the arrow at least a quarter or half turn before pulling back. This breaks the grip of the foam, then pull straight back. Since yours has a broadhead on it you should rotate counter clockwise because clockwise would want to rotate shaft and broadhead. The broadhead would try to prevent clockwise rotation.

Yes but you do need to shoot your broad heads to check for same poi as FP. They often do not

To be honest these guys are shooting arrows from a very accurate platform all they need to know is the offset. Zero with broadheads and practice with field points. Honestly I don't even see the need to practice that much with that platform but I grew up with a Red Wing Hunter in my hands and that was a very different sort of "archery".

No i.did.not. I tried to push through no luck. Ill have to buy a arrow puller!!! I will also.have to find the practice field.points that fly the same as there broadheads.. I saw a few different brands of broad heads that do that. I'd also.like.to try some Easton Aluminium arrows!!! I have to sort the umarex arrows for extreme accuracy.
