Sinew Question.

<< < (2/4) > >>

Pat B:
I chew sinew only for arrow wraps or other small diameter wraps. Anything larger or for backing a bow I use hide glue with the sinew.

crooketarrow:
  When I sinewed bows I just soak it in a glass of warm water for 10 mins or so then wipe dry. I do chew it for arrows sometimes.

mullet:

i soak it in warm water and TB3, works real good and is water resistant.

YosemiteBen:
If ya don't like the flavor then you probably didn't clean it enough. The sinew I use in the museum has no flavor that I can detect. I usually put a few strands in my mouth while I am talkin to visitors and watch their faces when they ask what I am doin!

PEARL DRUMS:
I chew my arrow wrap sinew and soak my bow backing sinew.
