LEGIONNAIRE:
Quick question on plains arrows. I know the bows did not have particularly long draws 20-24 and the arrows where not to long and spine did not have much of an effect because they shot short range. How thick were the shafts, from my book it says 5/16 but I might of heard somewhere some were up to 3/8ths if so where these tappered shafts? if tappered, was the thicker end foward? oops not a quick one. any help appreciate it.

mullet:
 Maybe Mr. Jackcrafty will come on. He's made numerous, authenic plains arrows.

Pat B:
Jackcrafty(Patrick) has a few "build alongs" in the "how to" section, making primitive arrows and mostly plains style.

LEGIONNAIRE:
I searched and couldnt find the buildalong thats why i asked.

Pat B:
Patrick(Jackcrafty) has a few build alongs but not necessarily Sioux. Look on page 5(stone age privet...) and page 6(Apache style and California style) Lots of excellent info.
