  • Patent number: 6174251
    Abstract: An arrow (10) intended for dispersing olfactant (for example, for use in deer hunting) and comprising an elongate body (12) having an internal cavity (14), this cavity (14) having a container portion (18) to accommodate a frangible liquid container (20). A container rupturing device (24) is disposed within the cavity (14) adjacent the container portion (18), this device (24) being such that the arrow, with a container (20) on board, can be launched from a bow without rupturing the container (20), but that upon the arrow (10) striking a target, the device (24) will rupture the container. A wick (40) is disposed within the cavity (14) adjacent the container portion (18), this wick (40) being capable of absorbing the liquid released from the rupture of the container (20). The body (12) has apertures (42) extending from the cavity (14) to the exterior of the body (12) adjacent the wick (40), so that gas produced by evaporation of liquid absorbed on the wick (40) can diffuse out of the arrow.
