Horse creek clovis
« on: November 10, 2008, 04:25:40 pm »
 Ok guys, i am very proud of this point, its probably the best Clovis I've ever done. and i love its colors. these pics show both sides. i was so nervous flooting it, pappy was standing there saying "dont be a #$%%^ and just hit it" so i did and i hit it and whacked it good cause i got good floots on both sides and did not brake the ears off the back. Hope yall enjoy it.  oh yea i was shaking like i had buck fever after i knocked off the 2nd floot.
 the 1st pic is the finished point. the 2nd pic is after the 1st floot befor i did the 2nd one and cleaned it up.

Beautiful point!  Don't you love it when things turn out right??  Would have been a heart breaker if it shattered!  Watcher

  Whew! Bet that felt good. Pappy sounded like me when I so lovingly coached Hillbilly fluting one up at Cade's. ;D

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