the buck i killed this year was with a texas chert point was probably about 90 grains. really you want to keep ranges close 12y and under and point weight doesnt matter as long as you are used to how high or low the arrow flys. nice small points do great with less drag imo. i debated a long time about what style and size worked the best and after killing one, i realized keep it 12y and under and just about any works great as long as it is real sharp. look at all the originals from different time periods and home ranges.. styles and sized vary.. they all work, you just need a thin profile, smooth transition and it be as sharp as possible..throw a "pretty" edge out the window and trade it in for a scary sharp edge..lol although a lot of times stone edges are like welds in the sense that pretty is sharper (or stronger when talking bout welds) a good uniform edge can be really sharp, you just have to avoid blunt spots. and sometimes i end up making a "divot" in the edge of a point to get rid of a blunt spot...is it pretty? no but its sharp. ok sorry for the long reply...just finished that bottle of sangria i posted in the "around the campfire forum"..lol..
