Hey Elijah, I'd bet that Australian Pine Saplings would make supremely tough spear shafts.

Cool! And congratulations. I couldn't answer your text when you sent it, I was busy sticking a Coyote with the Kodiak. The good thing about orange grove hogs is they are wormed and marinated. I hunt a friends Sun Sweet tangerine grove, now those hogs are tasty.

That's so kewl ... but, you're NUTS!   :o

That point held up great.  How much force did it take to drive it in that hog?  More than you expected?  Less than you expected?  Either way its awesome that you got to test your work on the real deal!

I was actually surprised how much force it took when I hit the pig it pushed it for a split second before breaking skin, as soon as it did though it stuck in the chest cavity and didn't want to come out even as the hog tried spinning around. This point was kinda wide I think in the future I'm gonna make a longer point that tapers slower and has a very needle tip.
