Stone Point Does The Trick!
« on: October 08, 2012, 09:58:05 am »
Well, I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to get a shot on a nice lead doe last evening.  She came in at about 10 yds and I made the shot count.  When I released, I also hit the bottom of my climber with my lower limb....66in HBI, which is a little longer than I'm used to.  Fortunately for me, it didn't slow my arrow down any.  I really couldn't make a better shot.  It passed clean through.  She didn't know what hit her and did the sideways stagger and piled up in a brush pile.  Although I didn't post it, I have a picture of the heart, it was a dead center!  No wonder she didn't go far or know what hit her.  I was blessed last night.  This was a bow I made from Ipe that I got from tenbrook(Cody Dumont), and arrows I got from Jonathan Creason.  Both are members of this site.  The stone was a piece of Buffalo Chert I believe....amazingly still intake without a blemish.  I couldn't be any happier.  This site makes something like this all possible.  Thanks for looking
