Broadhead Question for a Bow Novice

[RealtreeVol]

Killed my 1st deer (doe) with a bow. My arrow and broadhead were extremely bloody. Is there anything I can do to clean the broadhead and arrow?

The blood on the broadhead already dried. However, the broadhead itself is still good....

Any help would be appreciated.

some hot water, and a paper towel

NEVER NEVER NEVER re-use a broadhead UNLESS you can shave hair with it through re-sharpening.

x3 I always reuse my broadheads as long as they spin true. Sometimes I can get by with just replacing 1 sometimes 2 blades. They cost to much to only use once. That is why I only use heads with replaceable blades.

AMEN....My record for re-use is a single arrow and 100 grain 3 blade muzzie that killed 6 deer before a blow through hit a rock and took a chunk out of the blade. Just clean, and re-sharpen.

slap it on a stone and put it back in the quiver

Ditto, they don't have to be surgical sharp. They still pass through them like butter after many uses. Just soak them, clean with a needle and a toothbrush and sharpen if needed and reuse.
