I've used the G5 small game heads with good results

I use judo points as well. I always carry one in my quiver along with 2 turkey heads besides my broadheads.

I actually use a washer screwed in behind a field trip. I've shot zillion grouse with that set up. It works great and is far cheaper than any of the name brand judo points or small game heads. Grouse and rabbits are not elk. You just need something that will knock the senseless.
I use one of those hard rubber blunt tips. My buddy gave it to me a few years ago and I've killed probably 15-20 squirrels with them. If you get a head shot, it just goes straight through and barely even a twitch of the tail. I try to take closer shots on squirrels that are standing and aim for the shoulder. If it's a little closer it goes high and hits the head, shoulder shots are basically instant death, and right behind the shoulder results in a lung area shot and a lot of broken bones. I thought that with a 70# bow that it would be overkill but I think the resistance of the higher surface area prevents most of the over penetration. I've never had a full pass through.

I have given just about every small game head a try. I have had good luck with the G-5 and judo, but the judos are what I keep going back to. The G-5 heads work great but get messed up on rocks. Those judos are tough and work well on Fox size game and smaller. Love it shooting rabbits in a grassy area. The judo head will not let you arrow burrow down under the grass , helping you to find them after the shot.

Beer cap behind the field point works as well, if slightly less proper!
