That point is Antler rounded,with a horn center. Its one of those knockem out points,Kinda copied it from a metal blockbuster I used to have. As for why Ya have to use as Flu Flu for Birdies  don't know,I think it's so the arrow does'nt go to far. Far as I know there legal.Good for Birds, Rabbit, squirels ,snakes, etc...... Whats with the uploader anyhow?

I never had a lot of success with fluflu's and I wrap mine a different way. I tie one end of one feather and wrap it around the shaft and tie the other end. I mean they flu, but they aren't accurate.

You mean like this? I whipped up a couple today, and they're very accurate at 15-20 yards, fly great.  They run out of steam pretty quick past that range, though.

Your flu flu arrows should be as accurate as any of your other arrows out to 15 or 20 yards. If not its the shaft not the flu flu.    Pat

What Pat said. Also, if you're spiraling them, try to spiral them in the same direction that you would if you were simply putting helical twist on, depending on whether it's a right-wing or left-wing feather.

i tried a couple of the spiral kind a while back. flew great but i was doing it from a turkey feather i found in the woods, and i didnt sand down the quill at all. cut my knuckle all to bits.still got a pretty cool scar from that one. ::)  i really like yours though. that point is very cool too. ive been trying to come up with a paleo design for a blunt... hope you dont mind poachers!! ;)
