Those are nice. And heavy too. I don't know anything about stone points, are you able to test shoot those to see how they fly or is a one and done kinda shot?

thanx fellows!  i was told the coral was raw but the fellow who knapped them, claude vanorder, is one of the best.  i've tried raw coral and yes it is a bear.  one or two of the points are texas chert so they are darker.

Those are some great looking arrows!

Killinstuff  asked this question "Those are nice. And heavy too. I don't know anything about stone points, are you able to test shoot those to see how they fly or is a one and done kinda shot?"

Are you able to test arrows like this before the hunt?

thanx fellows!  i'll be testing them when i finish the osage static selfbow i planning on using on the hunt.  it's very similar to a bear grumly design.  i usually shoot my stone points into a big block of styrofoam.  it was once a float under a dock and it's very stone point friendly.
