A projectile that includes a shocking function is presented. The projectile, such as an arrow, is structured to shock an animal as the arrow strikes its target. A capacitor may be used to store energy to generate the shock, or a shocking circuit may be self-contained. The shocking mechanism may be controlled by switch. In other embodiments electrically isolated electrodes could be present on the arrow, including the broadhead, that automatically cause the shocking system to discharge when the arrow has reached its target. The shocking function may be combined with a vibrating function for an even more lethal strike.
