Had a couple of pins in the Dogwood so I decided to rawhide back it, it is a good shooting bow but still not what I had hoped for, it will make a good hunting bow I think so a little security ant a bad thing. ;) I got it on last night and plan on trimming it up this evening and maybe then finally getting it finished up, only started it in 05. ;) :) When I got home I had a package from E. Jensen,3 beautiful forged points, they will look cool as soon as I have time to put them on some arrows.THANKS E. Jensen. :) Also Miss Joanie got me a book from PA, making primitive paints and glue , I made a quick look through it and looks like some very good info, can't wait to look at it closer, Thanks Miss Joanie. ;) :) :)

I shoot 125 points, in general.  I'll make sure that I have a matched set.

I knew you would, don't think I seen anything about point weight, just that they had to be glue on ??? not sure what else you would use on wood or Cain. ;) ;D ;D Guard your arrows , I may try and tweak them just a bit ,of course just to be sure they are all good and straight. >:D ;) :)

Pappy, Some guys use duplex nail points with cane and bamboo shafts. Would those be considered glue on?

Don't think there will be any problem with any natural arrow in the self bow class, doubt anyone will look at the points anyway. ???Mainly I think they are talking about the Modern longbow/recurve classes/can't use nib's.  :)

Nice points, thanks again E. Jensen, love them. Had a little time to get the nocks and point on my new Cain arrows,no time to shoot them yet. Then to work on the ranges and hauling mulch to the trails. We had a pretty good turn out being the 4th of July. :)
