drum dancer is pretty cool,, in africa, the drums always announce some special event,,Im sure what you pick will be perfect

bjrogg:
Yes the more research I do the more it looks like jogah (jo-ga-ho) is the perfect name for this bow.

Iroquois for drum dancers a small mostly invisible spirt who lives by the stony creeks and caves. They are sometimes seen by respectful people, especially medicine men and elders. They love children and take care of them if they are alone. They take care of the plants and are responsible for their yield. They helped respectful Iroquois farmers. They were very strong and came out at night to control the snakes and underground demons. They left small pots where offerings of tobacco and fingernails could be left.

I think it is jo-ga-ho

My little person friend lives beside a stony Creek

Bj, the bow is great but the goodness of your heart is greater! Jawge

Very cool bow with some character. Super nice gesture. I’m sure he will love it, even if it’s just for the fact you made it for him. You are a very good friend.

Thank You George. It certainly did my heart good to do this one. I think I got more out of it than I gave. I started on an arrow last night. I can’t wait to see him shoot it again. I think he might have been a little disappointed when I text him I took another 5 lbs off. He said it was just right, but I’m really hoping it allows him to shoot easier and maybe even without his unique form. I’m sure he is thinking it won’t have enough cast, but I think with the right arrows he is going to be really surprised. Let’s hope so anyway.

    Thanks everyone for the kind comments.
