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

Nice one Eddie. That looks like you just pulled it out of the river 8)  What's that rock?
  I got to watch James whoop that big 'un out.  If there's ever been a modern day cave man...it's him ;D
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

  It's some of that tough old Texas rock, Shannon. Ol'James kinda looks like a cave man, too.

That's some nice work Eddie! And that big blade is well BIG ;D. Ryolite from NM, hmm - I've got a couple of pinkish rocks from there that kinda look similar. Now I'm gonna have to hit em :).

  Thanks, I kind of got into a banging bug lately. I got tired of slabs and haven't beat on anything in awhile. Tim, it was tough, I'm always sore after that Texas stuff.  Roger, I guess I have been doing a few e-notches lately. Trying to get better at notching.
