AAAH! Two of the pics aren't showing up I'll see if I can fix it tomorrow when I have some time.
Sadly I haven't tried knapping yet the stone points where a gift from "Turtle" I did the bone I ones.

Sweet! Whats the bulb on the hydroplaning arrow made from? I always thought those would be a lot of fun to shoot. Just not too sure how fun the recovery would be though.

It's made from pine pitch and charcole with a little bees wax. This One has bone in the shaft but usually they where made to be disposable. Or they used a material with a pith such as oceanspray and then the shaft would float.

I read bout those in the BB series.  So tell me, do they work, cause they sure all real cool to contemplate?

Would love to see a video of them in action (just at a target).
