Is it permissible to reuse a broadhead after shooting a deer?

Reusing a broadhead after shooting a deer is permissible as long as there is no visible damage to it. Many hunters choose to inspect their broadheads carefully after use, as a damaged head can affect performance and impact accuracy during subsequent hunts. If the broadhead has retained its sharpness and shows no signs of wear or structural harm, it is efficient and economical to use it again.

Some broadheads are designed for durability and can withstand the forces encountered during a hunt, making them suitable for reuse under the right conditions. This practice can save hunters money and reduce waste, as long as safety and performance standards are met. Broadheads that are bent, cracked, or otherwise compromised should be replaced to ensure safety and effectiveness.
