points for piggies
« on: November 26, 2007, 06:39:41 pm »
     I just picked up these points today and thought I'd share them with everybody.Awhile back I asked Claude VanOrder to make myself and Chris Cade up some hunting points for our Dec. hog hunt.I knap but I'm not as consistant as Claude.Probally why I have been learning from Claude the last 10 years or so.We wanted them all 2 3/4" long and 1" wide.They all weigh between 200 and 210 grains.Most of the material is raw coral,Texas chert and argilite.

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

  Brian,His whole yard looks like a lithic artifact site.I watched him make one of the raw coral points in about 20 minutes.Started out with a flake he picked up off the ground,percussion beat it and finished up with pressure flaking ,while carrieing on a conversation.
