  Pappy, That's how turpentine was harvested down here for years. Slash Pines were,,"slashed"in a V shape and a clay pot with a hole was stuck on a nail at the bottom of a tin funnel nailed into the tree. I'll get a picture up of one of the old, turn of the century pots. We still find them in the swamps with resin in them.

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

 They are hard to find down here in one piece. But I have a friend that has about 60 of them.
