Hard to get motivated with the Temps already in the mid-90's but I knocked this one out of some Flint Ridge today while I was cooking a batch of River rock.

If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Thank you, gentlemen.
We played in the Alafia River yesterday for coral and came up with a little bit of what we call "ledge", It's hard to come by. It's the flat rock the point is sitting on. It doesn't need heat treating and is a dream to work once you get around the cracks and inclusions.

Nice point! I've been doing my knapping after dark. There's been a cool breeze most nights.
