ABO Hunting points
« on: November 28, 2015, 09:30:32 pm »
Stone point results:
Will a stone point cut through a rib? Yes this is the second time I have seen these results.
Are stone points durable? Yes this point never broke on impact. And it was shot into frozen ground many times before hitting this deer. I like to test them first jw. Yes I miss a lot. I retouch the points after planting the point in the dirt. I also reset the glue.

The hairs embedded in the cut were an unexpected. I guess we don't think about how much is happening all at the same time.

Too cool! I was hoping to copy this experiment last night but the full moon kept the deer feeding in the field rather then walking in the woods.
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.

If i was to guess, I would say you missed your meds this morning Zuma.  Your troll routine is getting a bit tiresome.  Speaking for myself, I would greatly appreciate it if you would cease  and desist with the BS forthwith, let by gones be by gones and we can all move on.   Just a suggestion mind you.  Josh

Will you please let us know if you are trolling with anti-hunting sentiments or taking pot-shots at iowabow.  Like Gun Doc (and a large number of others) I am weary of your behavior in here.

Let's let Iowa field my reply.
Why? Because it's his thread.
Or address missing a lot. My post. Thanks

Looks good to me Iowa. What stone did you use?   I have killed only one deer with one of my heads which was made out of Flintridge material.
congrats on your deer.  I have been a bow hunter for over 50 years and there are no bad kills.

Congratulations, John. I thought you were using a glass point when I saw the picture.
Lakeland, Florida
 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Thanks guys, I passed on this deer 2 times and told Annette that I was going to take it the next time it came through. The arrow hit the heart and it ran about 40 yards I am guessing. Eddie your right it does look like glass and thank you.
JEB I used Burlington flint and congrats on yours also. It's such a great feeling to make the point and see good results in the end.
I am in the process of making a few new shafts and points, deer season opens again in about a week and hoping for one more.
I might try a new style from Cahokia mound 72 but not sure which one.
