I have been breaking the trad. law lately I think (I know there is a forum site for it)[8D]....don't get me wrong...I'm obsessed with my Hoyt....but I have to tell you....if you have not tried it....

You gotta send some flint through the air out of a stick bow!....After you burn up your digital camera you'll spend the rest of the year admiring how cool you think you are...

Don't get to cocky though...after I killed with flint I blew 6 feet over the back of an 8 pt at 9 yards...paint that picture in your head....HAHA....its like in the MOVIE Patriot...aim small miss small....friggin stick....try to hate'em...but I love'em too....

sounds fun

How do you sharpen flint heads and keep them weighing the same and maintain your FOC? Also, how do you scribe threads on a flint head so that it'll screw into your insert? Sheesh, this sounds difficult.[8D]

I tought my self to flint knappe at age 12 becouse I was fascinated with arrowheads. Then when I got intobowhunting my dad and I were making a split rail ceder finceone dayand I deiced to make a bow.It became an obsessionto harvest a deer withwhatI had made. I was 16 years oldand it was a small doe, I never tried it again it was just somthing I had to accomplish. I made pinetrees with flutson one side all 7/8 in.wide and between 110 and 120 grain and antler tips for knocks.My bow I made was about 45 pound.

You flake the eadge to sharpen and reduce wight, flint is much harder than steel, you get under wight you make a new one for free. Notch the shaft, glue with pine resin and rap it with senuew.
