Hey thanks, I have to go back to work on Monday.   I was tring to be a Tower wantabe with the notches but I chickened out after breaking the ears twice.  I thought I would make a point everyday between now and monday.  You have seen the points below but I picked these out to shoot this deer season.  I know that the ugly ones would do it but I made them to shoot.  And they are matched at 100 grains give or take a couple grains.   I am going to get busy making arrows next week.  Only 50 days left.

That's a quiver full. I'd wast a few on some hogs! That's the best way I know to get ready for deer season. Very nice set of points.

Gorgeous work!  I REALLY need to get learning this rock stuff...I had a goal of killing a deer with my own knapped point this season but with less than 50 days left that may not be realistic any longer.
