A hunting arrow which includes a radio transmitter externally attached to the shaft of the arrow for transmitting a signal to a directional locating receiver in order to locate a wounded quarry or spent arrow. In one embodiment, the transmitter is externally attached to the arrow utilizing fastening means such as wire fasteners. In an alternate embodiment, the transmitter is attached to a penetration suppressor that frictionally engages the arrow shaft and includes movable arms to stop penetration of the arrow within the quarry by engagement with a fletching of the arrow.
