Chances are high we’ve all been there. If you’re a hunter, you’ve likely had the experience of shooting an animal and watching it run off into the trees, over the ridge, or somewhere out of site. Do you begin blood trailing now or do you back out and wait? Was it a well-placed shot to the vitals, or did you hit guts? These questions can wreak havoc on a hunter’s mind. But now you can put your mind at ease with simple to use indicators from Gut Check®.

Available for a wide assortment of big game varieties, Gut Check’s arrow wraps slide seamlessly over your arrows allowing for instant confirmation if your shot was a hit to the vitals or a gut shot. For those that don’t want to alter their arrows, wipes are also available and allow a hunter to know the location of their shot simply by wiping the used arrow and watching the color change of the wipe.
