Worked on this GT Blue point tonight. Little too big for me to hunt with so prob going back later to bring down to hunting point size :)

I have a piece of osage that was off a limb of a bow that a friend of mine was making. The bow failed during the tillering process so we saved the residual limbs to make atlatls from.

David, that's what my last, and favorite atlatl is made from, not sage, but hhb. I have three more limbs I plan to do the same with. :o dp
