No, but I've used pig and beaver teeth for fine serrations on stone points.

thats for sure, I know you can use a crossbow where I hunt too, but I can't bring myself to use wheels or sights after all the practice with my longbow,  itll be so much more rewarding when it finally happens.  thats why barta calls it hunting the hard way,   i call it hunting the fun way.

Howard Hill wrote a book called "Hunting The Hard Way." in the 1950's. NOT Tred Barta. Barta is using the title ( like he said it ) ta promo his hunting escapades. He didnt say it first.............bob
