Title: mahogany obsidian point
Post by: Josh B on March 14, 2012, 05:14:51 am

This one is barely legal to hunt with in Kansas. Kansas law is that it can't pass through a 3/4" washer.  Only the small serrations prevented this one from being a giver away point instead of the proper application,at the tip of an arrow.  Josh

Looks real good to me, bud. If ya never shot a small head at deer I can tell you they are equally leathal to their big brothers and maybe even a tad better on the penetration scale. Nice point there.

Josh I think that is one of your best yet! I like how you thinned the tip.  Side notch is my favorite style.  I really like many of the northern side notches.
