Yeah, they'll gnaw on your leg if you hit 'em with one of those. I'd use a broadhead.

The blunts knock the snot out of squirrels & rabbits. If it doesn't kill em it knocks em out long enough for a well placed knife blade. I used to walk around with my brother in the evenings many years ago & he would take rabbits along the edge of our yard in the weeds with the big old hard rubber blunts.  They would make for good "shoot & release" opportunities on coons I would think.

We ran coons with dogs for years, and shot them with our bows.  Blunts, out of 70# recurves, rarely penetrated, even steel blunts.  When we switched to compounds, things changed, but even then we mostly used broadheads.  Coons are just plain tough.

Broadhead with a scorpion to stop the passthrough should do it.
