Matched set for a hunter...
« on: March 05, 2014, 04:04:15 am »
I made these for a guy in WV for his next hunt. He wanted them 1,3/4" X 1,1/8" @ 85gr. These are from spalls of Kentucky hornstone with one being TX root beer. I hope one finds both lungs !

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

Seminole, truly awesome, How manydo you  have to make to get 7 perfect ones? Hope you can make the classic, and Flint Ridge is still South of the Mason Dixon, ;D also the biggest knappin east of the Mississippi, You need to go at least once, lots and lots of stone$$$$. Later Bob

Man thats tempting ! I never realized its that big. On these I started with seven spalls and got seven points. On the set I am posting tomorrow the complexity was so hard I broke almost as many as I ended up with !

Those are awesome!
I still think that set of Gunthers is going to be hard to top though!
Thanks for the inspiration....
