I shoot stone points into round hay bales and have had very few problems.

  I do into a foam bale but mostly into a sand pile if the head has barbs. But I knap all my hunting heads so they have a tappered back (not barbed). I'ver never had one of my heads come off. I set and reset before hunting season.
  Mostly after 20 or so shots and I'm hiting good with it. I'll put it up and get another shoot it and so on.
