 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Really nice points everyone.I think this month challenge was a great way for us to learn a bit more about a good quality hunting point, and how better to make them. The animals this fall don't stand a chance? ;)

I made this one out of some broken blue glass found along the road.   It looked like it might have been an old jar.  I used the biggest piece left from the bottom.   Managed to get the curve out, but is smaller than I wanted.   This one weighs in at about 110 grains.

Yep! The flag will be flying at my house!

Nice points! My knapping kit just got here from twin oaks in the mail. Yep! I left my tools behind by accident. I hope to have a few done by the end of this weekend.
