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

Here's my feeble attempt and a real one made from quartzite. That Texas concrete is some of the worst stuff I think I've ever beat on.

Here is my laughable offering.  I'm not sure of the stone, possibly novaculite.  I only used my antler bopper to make this one.  I just wanted to see how well I could do with 100 percent percussion.  I did not realize how often I reached for the pressure flaker to set up platforms.  I want to try one with just a hammerstone and see how well that works.  Josh

Josh, nothing wrong with that. Go back and look at the real one from NC I posted.

 ;D  Tough TX chert, raw.  Indirect percussion and pressure with copper.
