Title: A Few Hunting Points
Post by: madcrow on June 30, 2009, 11:42:45 pm

These will be mounted and hopefully get some blood on them this fall.  The one on the right still needs the deltas taken off and the edge sharpened.  Right now it is 1 1/8" wide and 1/8" thick.

 Eddie, those are some good looking points. Hunting, I've had better luck with points shaped like the middle one. It has more cutting edge. The one on the right really quits cutting about mid- point.
