Post by: Outbackbob48 on July 31, 2010, 03:29:29 pm
Went back to some easier type material today an had a little trouble turning  down the horsepower. Got a nice little point out of a spall an tryed to work on some symentry today, always one barb shorter or longer or differnt curve from side to side or one notch deeper than other, sometimes I think my eyes are to critical ::) Just get it sharp an pointy an go huntin ;D Thanks for lookin .

Great point Bob u gotta think that the black speckles might play an eye trick.  I do kinda the same beating on Onondaga then switching to something else... I might break a few till getting it under control. Again great point Bob!

Don't look like you had any problems with symetry on that one!  I like that style of point.
