  • 100 grain Flint Hunting Point SOLD

    100 grain Flint Hunting Point SOLD

    This 100 grain flint hunting point has a long, lean shape for deep penetration and quick humane kills.  It has finely serrated edges that are sticky sharp when drawn across the skin.  It also has a moderate thickness for enhanced durability.  It’s pretty too, as it’s made from a glossy, mottled brownish and off white flint.  Because this point has backward pointing “wings”, it is classified as a barbed point and would not be legal in states that require non-barbed arrowheads, so check local state game laws before purchasing.  It’s recommended that this point be mounted to arrows weighing a minimum of 525 grains and it be shot from bows pulling 55 lbs or more.  Free shipping to all U.S. customers.

  • 135 grain Flint Arrowhead for Modern Arrow NEW!

    135 grain Flint Arrowhead for Modern Arrow NEW!

    $45.00

    This screw-in flint hunting point weighs 135 grains and features a red flint point with finely serrated edges that are sticky sharp when drawn across the skin.  The point provides a 7/8 inch cutting width and has a non-barbed design to conform to states that require non-barbed broadheads for hunting big game.  The point is mounted into a short, hardwood shoot foreshaft with epoxy and then wrapped with artificial sinew for a traditional look.  The short foreshaft is painted black with three yellow rings to simulate the warning colors of a yellow jacket.  This arrow will fit any standard carbon fiber or aluminum arrow but will not fit the newer, super slim carbon fiber arrows.  This point is for hunting only and should not be shot for practice, otherwise the fragile edges can be dulled.  To practice, screw in a field point or blunt weighing 135 grains.  When hunting, just remove the practice point and screw in this flint point.  Identical arrow points have been used to take deer and even big game in South Africa. This point can be shot from traditional bows, compound bows and crossbows.  Free shipping within the U.S.

  • 40-grain Flint Hunting Point

    40-grain Flint Hunting Point

    $15.00

    This corner notched flint hunting point is made of Texas flint and is the perfect deer hunting point.  It has a long, lean profile with finely serrated edges that are so sharp they feel sticky when dragged across your upper lip.  In my opinion this is the ideal big game hunting point based on my 25 years of primitive hunting experience.  It has a 3/4 inch wide cutting width and it falls in-line with prehistoric stone arrow points.  The old guys depended on their archery gear to eat…their very survival relied on points like this one, so I tend to copy what they used prehistorically.  And as proof, several deer and wild hogs have fallen to points identical to this one….they’re incredibly deadly when delivered to the vitals of any North American game.  Free shipping within the U.S.

    51-lb Snakeskin Backed Osage Hunting Bow SOLD

    Here’s another one of the few remaining hunting bows made by my good friend Dan Spier who sadly passed away in Apr. 2024.  This deadly osage hunting bow pulls 51 lbs at 28 inches and is backed with the skin of a western Diamondback rattlesnake.  It has a string made of Fast Flite for low stretch, fast arrow speed and a sweet release.  The grip is buttery-soft black deerskin with a baseball stitch on the front.  It also has tip overlays of black water buffalo horn.  This bow is designed for hunting big game and is perfect for taking down deer, elk, and tough wild hogs.  It’s shipped in a sturdy PVC pipe that can be kept as a storage/shipping container for the bow.  Care/instruction sheet included.  Free shipping to all U.S. customers.

  • 55-Grain Obsidian Hunting Point (NEW!)

    55-Grain Obsidian Hunting Point (NEW!)

    $30.00

    If you want to take down big game quickly when bow hunting, you’ve come to the right place.  This mahogany obsidian hunting point is as beautiful as it is deadly.  It’s designed to dispatch big game quickly and efficiently.  It has a long, lean profile with finely serrated edges that are so sharp they feel sticky when drawn across your skin.  Because obsidian is a little weaker than flint, it is slightly thicker in cross section for added durability.  I’ve used identical points to take down big game in South Africa, proving these points are deadly on serious big game animals.  It has a 7/8-inch cutting width and is non-barbed to conform to states that require non-barbed broadhead designs.  The base and inside the notches have been dulled so the lashings won’t be cut.  Free shipping within the U.S.

  • 90-grain Flint Hunting Point

    90-grain Flint Hunting Point

    $35.00

    This corner notched flint arrowhead is made of tan Texas flint and is designed for taking down big game.  It weighs 90 grains and has finely serrated edges that are super sharp.  It also has a flat, thin profile for reduced friction upon striking its target and it’s made from raw, uncooked flint for maximum durability.  It has a 1 1/4-inch cutting width for a large wound channel and quick, humane kills.  Bows pulling 55 lbs or more, as well as heavier hunting arrows (550 grains or more) are highly recommended with this point.  Check local game laws as stone points aren’t legal to hunt with in all states and this arrowhead is considered barbed due to the backwards pointing basal corners. Free shipping to all U.S. customers.
