Stone point got er done
« on: October 10, 2010, 01:32:00 PM »
Finished up two 495 gn bamboo shafts and tipped  them with 145 gn stone points last week to shoot out of my 48# bamboo backed Osage that I finished this summer. Got up this morning and over my coffee I saw where Batman shot his second buck and was telling my wife about it and she replied some backstrap would be good for supper. So being the hunter/gatherer that I am I finished my coffee grabbed my new setup and went to my blind. About 45 min later the straps arrived. She was quartering away at 15 yds when I shot she ducked and bolted I hit a little high and back. After about five miniutes I heard her in the briar thicket I went to where I hit her and found blood  so I gave her about 30 min and tracked her about 20 yards into the briars and she was expired. I  hit a main vein or the blunt force trauma from that stone point killed her. The best part of the day was I did not break my arrow or point  cause I was kinda hatein to lose my new arrow it's a lot of work building them things.

Congrats! Hopefully I will join the ranks soon.

 I been hunting with stone exclusively since the opener and I am pumped about it. It will be my first when it happens.

Nice on all points.  Making meat with tools you have made, and get to use again.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
