Great shot.

Can't speak for him but most I've seen are a .357 brass with a nail point out through primer hole then slid over the end of a wooden arrow sometimes the nail isn't put in just the brass and maybe a few lead shot for weight.

Did I read that right? 60 lb draw? It looks like that thing would snap, guess that shows what I know about long bows.

I got the bow from natural archer it's six feet long unstrung and the draw is 60 pounds I'm working on making a bow out of pecan wood. The point is a 357 mag shell that I took the primer out of and then I drilled the hole out to make it a little bigger and I put the nail through the hole and glued it on. It weighs about 127 grains which is about perfect since my feild points are 125 grains.
