Will B's number 6.  The static tips are so even. I would like to see pictures of the bows with snakeskins up close to see the finish transfer from wood to skin.  This is what makes a best bow of the year.

Are you selling time travel equipment?????

Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

 I love how primitive archery brings us back to the core of the craft, blending historical techniques with personal creativity. Whether you’re talking bow designs, arrow making, or field experiences, there’s so much to learn from this community. Looking forward to more photos and tips — especially on tillering and choice of woods!
