Mods is there a way to lock it until the original poster has an update? Maybe this sort of back and forth is common (have not seen anything along these lines yet in my limited use of this forum) but it seems to be a lot more hostile than any other posts I have read.

We are all here because we have a common love for primitive archery and a certain level of respect for the history. Can we try to get back on the rails and guide this topic back to those values?

Wills still looking forward to the update on Marks methods of construction and materials used in his blunts and how they perform. Maybe this is all "common sense" to most but for others (myself included) it is an interesting topic that maybe we haven't seen discussed in length.

Sorry don't usually post things like this especially being this new to the community, but this is one community I have come to respect and admire and this is a side of it that I haven't seen before (and don't really care for).

::) You must be new here ???. This is nothing when you guys start talking about, "what if". I've been reading all of this and have to agree with PatM, kinda :o Everybody seemed to use Blunts and nobody knows what for unless you were there.

 And, sorry, from a Yank's perspective, it cracked me up when Del said the article was a "little wordy". When you guys try to explain or talk about anything  I fall asleep before I figure out what this new discovery is about.  If someone doesn't use the right Terminology, or structure the sentence correctly, it's good for another bowl of popcorn and a cold beer. ;). Just kidding around, but, hey, you guys get too serious for me over a very short time in History. But I love reading this Thread.

 It's fun to read when I'm drinking a Cold One. :)

Looks like a bunch of posts got deleted! Is somebody in the penalty box?? ;D

Adam;
 I came into this late. It wasn't me.

I've got a feeling, the lack of arrowhead finds at 'butts" would be because they were not used, only blunts.

I think I've seen quite a few references to hunting and war heads to be illegal in medieval times and it was a hanging offence to be in possession of one!
