Plains style horse bow
THoward:
Oops! here are the rest. The pic down the limb shows the color off well from the dirt and blackberry skins. I like the color and will experiment again with natural dyes. The only problem I came across was poor fletching adhesion on the dirt/juice portion of the arrows. A little Native American super glue helped solve that problem. This time.
Just to wrap up the bow is vine maple, 44" ntn, 30lbs at 21" and the arrows hand planed cedar on a John Strunk arrow plane. She did not want turkey feathers so I went with black and white.
Thanks for taking a look, comments and feedback.
