Title: Fishing Point or hunting can't decide
Post by: DLH on May 25, 2012, 07:42:19 pm

Tried to make a fishing point to post in iowabow's thread but it didn't turn out how I wanted it to. Trying to add barbs to the point but they stalled so I think I can get the point far enough on a shaft to haft for deer this fall. May still use for bowfishing this summer but we will see. Made it from a flake of Ky green/depalite I believe thats what its called really wanting to get better at taking a spall and making into a point but getting alot better a pressure in the meantime. Any suggestions welcome thanks for looking.

Looks like a good point for hunting fish.
