Title: Cane, obsidian and antler
Post by: Benjy on October 29, 2009, 08:53:00 PM

This is my first deer with a cane, obsidian point(that I knapped), deer antler nock and wild turkey fletchings. Jeffery 62" recurve 55#@29" Man what a rush!!  The point went vertically through a rib on one side and poked through the skin on the opposite side. The first picture is how we found him.

Good going Benjy. It's nice taking a deer period, but doing it with a cane shaft and a head you knapped HAS to be a great satisfaction.
