It's called therapy!
« on: January 22, 2012, 04:13:44 pm »
I have been recovering for the last few weeks and couldn't stand to sit around any longer. I went out yesterday and got the garage warmed up early and started working on some points. Other than making preforms I have not been able to make any solid points since early December.

Since I admire Tower's work so much I thought if I could keep these points together I would try to work on my corner notching. Still see room for improvement, but was happy to be able to finish them without losing any ears. The bigger one is 3 and a half inches. But my wife really likes the peach colored point.

Burlington flint is some the best looking stone on the planet. Those are really nice points.

Fantastic points! I think I need some therapy.  Love the notches.

Thanks guys! I'm not much on resolutions, but if I were, I would resolve to improve on my notches and step fractures.

I agree, John, this stuff sure is some pretty rock! (I would trade for some horse creek, though)   ;D  ;)

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