STONE KILLS
Arrowbuster:
That is awesome, very nicely done. I have to know how much penetration did you get? I ask because that kind of setup really interests me.
burchett.donald:
Arrowbuster,
As far as penetration goes there was no problem...The bow is around 57lbs.@ 26" arrow weight was around 600+grains...I had total penetration at 18 yds...cut ribs on both sides...
The fletching stayed in the deer's cavity...Probably perfect arrow flight is the one most important factor to achieve penetration, you want that shaft driving straight behind the head, any wobbling and you have problems...Strive for good arrow flight with your set up...
Attached are entry and exit wound pictures... The right stone point will cut a devastating channel!
First picture is entry back a little but second shows the exit angle towards the front...

Arrowbuster:
Don, than you for the reply. I'd say you can't ask for any more than that. From those pics it appears your head performed great. So the next question I have, is it still sharp?
PeteC:
Nice doe ,and hunt, with all your "self" tackle. Good job. God Bless
burchett.donald:
Brad and Pete, thank you for the comments... ;)
Arrowbuster, the point wasn't damaged and is still sharp sir, the tip and all the micro edges are still intact...
