Tree Shark
« on: October 25, 2011, 08:19:31 pm »
Shannon gave me this nice piece of Sedalia chert this weekend after he snapped it in half... I think it was a challenge/gift from Tim Ott, it  had "I dare you" written on it when he first started hittin it. Anyway in that spirit I thought Id try to make a nice wide simmons tree shark type head to hunt with. Heres what I ended up with. 1 15/16"W x 2 3/4"L 140grains  I think it should leave a pretty good blood trail... >:D What yall think?

I liked it when you were hitting on it and I like it better now.

Thanks you guys! Tower, I'm not sure...I'm still learning my flint types. Maybe Shannon or Tim will chime in and better answer your question. :) Pappy, thanks. I used sinew from my last lil buck, seemed to dry a little clearer than most of my other sinew.

Will I love that style of point you made! I would like to trade you one of my side notch burlington points for one like the one you show on this point. I think that is really a great looking style. No rush just when ever you make a couple of extras!
