Cane, obsidian and antler
« 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.

Congratulations, Benjy!  That is too cool.
