A tip for a hunting arrow and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. A bullet-shaped tip is affixed to a shaft region and a threaded shaft for attachment to the threaded engagement of a standard hunting arrow. A pair of barbs extends out and forward from the tip. The barbs may be manufactured by creating a hole in a standard arrow tip transverse to the axial line thereof, and forcing a length of wire through the hole. The wire may be retained with a glue or sealant, and may be bent forward to a desired shape and sharpened.
