a new point and halfed points
« on: August 14, 2011, 01:47:12 am »
This new point is 130 grains.  It is kind like my others but is longer.  I like them a little long like this.  The other picture is of my hunting point on shafts.

Holy cow, those look identical.  You stamping them out with a cookie cutter?  Great looking arrows, just need to put some red stain on them. ;D

Nice set of arrows...I'm always shocked at the weight of rock points.

I used red oak to make my arrows from because it was available in the backyard. Thanks for all of the comments.

Reheating just like jackcrafty shows on his video is exactly how I did it.  I think that way is real good.

Those look great John!  Do you, as a resident, have to be drawn to hunt whitetails there in Iowa?
