 Here are the two good looking points I got from Steve, Hillbilly. Thanks Steve, I think that coastal Plains Chert point might end up on an arrow.

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

All right gang, I'd like to formally apologize to John (aka Former Butcher) in that I just got back from the post office to mail his points.  :-[ I know I boasted several times that "I was headed to the post office", but being on the road, them rascals are hard to find open (especially in big cities like Nashville).   ::)

John:  Be sure and look in the bottom of the envelope separate from the two pill bottles.  There's a really "crappy" Johnstone point I threw in for good measure.  I packed one point in a pill bottle and I also threw in some recent flies in the second.  I hope you can use them before all your water gets hard for the winter.  There'll be more headed you way.

Now, to find time for the Christmas exchange............. ???

I got these from robustus today.
Those Hardaway points are my favorites (can you tell?)  The side notch is well made, thin, & sharp enough to hunt with.
The blade on the left also looks like Rhyolite, but it is a color I've never seen before. It could go to work skinning right now.
Real nice work. Thanks, James!

All those points are just beautiful.  Those flies are nice too.  I think the flie tiers should have a fly swap

Here's a couple points I got yesterday from brian melton .  Thanks Brian! ;D
Due to a post office error (don't know what happened), Brian had to send a second set of points to me.
