are the tips secure enough that the tip will not be pulled out by sticky clay mud?

Yes we had one trail where the mud was like glue and I never lost a tip but found three extras from others who lost theirs in the trails. I highly recommend these trekking poles!

Not exactly, but it's all self contained. The tips always stay in the shaft. The unused tip is stored on the end that's inserted in the handle.

My two drawers are both filed with files so if one is open, there is no problem with tipping. However if both are open, obviously it does tip.

Yes the tip is installed already. We did have problems with the thread being loose on two sticks.

I haven't used them in a soft sand condition but I have used mine extensively in mud, hard pack, rocky and snowy conditions. I love these tips and they have held up very well.

I really doubt it. The shaft is just a cylindrical plastic tube wrap, and the tips are dense foam, almost rubberized. So as long as the foam tips don't just sit wet for days and mold they'd be fine.

with the edges taped well it would be fine. The tip does not shoot in a real fine pattern. We use this blaster for blowing sand into chink lines on log homes and works well. Montana Log Restoration, Inc.

Agreed that you really have to turn them tightly. However if using them in slick mud, the mud will hold them solidly so they twist loose as you pull them out.

No. It's pretty stable. We've used these in the ocean at the Outer Banks, and, once you're out past the wave line, they're pretty difficult to tip.

You have to pull the tip, it might be hard to pull so be careful not to hurt yourself.

Yes, it is very firmly secured, without a very small Phillips screwdriver it cannot be removed.

No, the tips are glued onto a molded end of the arrow. The tips do occasionally come off when prying the arrow out of a hard target (eg. a tree).

I just tried & the tips are tight, but I was able to move them, but I haven't taken them off.

I would say "No" based on just looking at it. There is a pointed tip that goes out beyond the threads so I cannot imagine the base being able to thread onto this foot because the rubber movable tip does not come off-it just adjusts for dirt or concrete.

I see no reason why they cannot. It's just (or just like) PVC pipe and if you have the tools to cut it, then cut it to the height you like and slide the tips on to your new tip. Seems to me it should be easy.

yes. the tip is removable by threads.mine has a double sling for 6- 20 feet shots.never bounced off of a fish yet. Jerry T.

Absolutely not, that is what makes it work...allowing pen to be held tipped
