Did some trading here lately and these are the arrows I made up for the up-coming hunting season. Different shafts and heads for different game.....hope ya like them.

If any of you guys can help identify the types of stone, it would be much appreciated. I can identify the Obsidian, and I think 2 others are Keokuck.....the rest I aint got a clue. They are all sharp and mounted up very nicely. So I'd like to thank Tell, Tim and twisted limbs for the beautifull heads.....the plan is to make some meat and then retire them to place of honor w/ a photo.

Look deadly Rich as for stone, the whitish could very well be Keokuk
