Shannon made me!
« on: March 24, 2010, 12:21:45 am »
Had to try one of these.This is my first try. No back slaps for sure. I gotta lot to learn about making this type of point. Didn't make the preform wide enough,pressure passes not even,base not round enough, yada,yada. ::)

Ya got my respect Slickfoot. ;) I'll do better on the next one,I promise,( or at least the next one I post a pic of)  :-X

Looks waaay better than my first one!  They'll get better fairly quick.  With each one I do I learn a little something.  When I stop figuring out ways to improve them...I'll move on to something else.
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

I have to wonder if deer worry about a point that isn't technically perfect being shot at them ???

Nice point Tim

You aren't happy with it as a first attempt... hell, I'd be happy if I could do that as my last attempt.
