I do not claim to be the great white hunter,but you guys that know me have known of me killing quite a few animals over the years.Have killed some with selfbows,but gonna take it a little farther this deer season here in Okla.Have some Dogwood shafts and stone points to go with an old selfbow that I am bringing out of retirement.The last time the old bow went hunting she killed a deer behind our cabin which was 7 years ago.Just something I have had a hankering to do for a long time and the time has come.Been shooting the selfbow ewxclusively for about 3 weeks now and am ready!

Best of luck, can't wait to here a good hunting tale.
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I'm going to want pictures. No doubt you'll do it, but I want pictures.
Bowhunting is a passion, not an obsession. Its just hard for my wife to tell the difference sometimes.

Well Terry I have taken one deer with a stone point and it was a hunt I will never forget. This year my goal is to use a self bow and stone point. I do that and I  can retire from hunting,lol.

Crittergitter: I see some Texas rock in those points. I will be using Texas stone this year myself.
