Alvin,
that is not the "tip", but what is left after the head broke off.
If the screw was stuck bad enough to break off the head, you are going to have major problems getting it out, it is probably "rusted" and stuck in the wood.
Drill out the bottom, then drive out the old shaft bottom to top.
Or just leave it alone.
