ABSTRACT:
A detachable arrow shaft insert, battery housing and transmitter casing accommodating an arrowhead and allowing separation of the insert and thus transmitting means from the arrow shaft when the arrowhead is lodged in a target and an outward pulling force is applied to the arrow shaft. The arrow shaft insert has an insert body that fits within the arrow shaft. The insert body is secured with respect to the arrow shaft with O-rings, circumferential ribs, or longitudinal ribs. An electronic transmitter can be connected to one end of the insert body or battery housing such that the electronic transmitter is housed within the arrow shaft. A conventional arrowhead is attached to one end of the insert body. The arrowhead, insert body, battery housing and electronic transmitter, if used, will remain intact, lodged in an animal's body or target even if the arrow shaft is forcibly disengaged from the insert body.
