Almost looks like home sweet home to me. As usual, too much going on to really mention it all - but all good

. I met John in the pit Sat I think. Was working on a point and he was leaing in there watching intently, think I asked him if he wanted to learn knapping and he told me he'd been knapping for twenty years - I almost handed him my tools so he could teach me a thing or two

.

Ya he use to be really good at it,I think he still is but he has a lot of trouble with his hands
and can't do it as much as he use to.

He has gave me some really nice blades and points over the years.He tried to teach me but I am a slow learner.

Man i need to get back out there, i relay wanna bust some rocks. I got about 30lbs of rock in my jeep that i have picked up over the last 2 weeks.
Me and Tim caught 33 catfish this weekend, some were 5-6 lbs. We will bring out a mess of fish to eat one Saturday.

Johns bow and points look great. Really like your trade points, bet they are fast. Pups are looking healthy too.

I was thinking the same thing Tiller wrote. We live a good life around here. Some folks only get to do this every now and then but we truly have a lot to be thankful for.
Life is truly - GOOD.

Bring him with you David,no better present than that.Ya Tracy I am really impressed with the way they shoot.Wished they had selfnocks but I barrel tapered the Hickory shafts to help get
the spine down so there wasn't enough wood left for that.Next time I will thin them some in the middle.

Pappy, can you do a "how to" about making those shafts? I would love to learn!
