Tower inspired point with dlh flint

This was hard for me because I have not practiced notching.  I have been admiring towers point which are amazing and wanted to give the deep notch thing a try.

That's nice John, and those are some very nice deep notches! Don't know how you got so good so fast. That Tower is one to watch that's for sure..

Good notches, Thats a point for hunting. Your advancing quick, keep knapping.
