Question about Sioux bows

<< < (2/3) > >>

PeteC:
I also want to note this is my first plains bow. I have built bows for all my children ,their spouses, and my grandkids. They all turned out great,and shoot very well, but I designed each of these.They are much more narrow,and can handle a pretty wide spine range.  For you who have built the plains bows, how did you get good arrow flight, with such wide limbs and a low brace height? Thanks again,  God Bless

uwe:
"The Enzyclopedia of Native American Bows, Arrows and Quivers" Volume 1 does not show bows on page 27. Only Algonkian arrows and on page 32 is only 1 bow of the Mohegan tribe.
Did you make a mistake?
Regards Uwe

PeteC:
I'm sorry. it is volume 2 that I'm referring to.

uwe:
Now we have to clear which page, becuse Vol. 2 starts with page 136- 223.
Regards Uwe

PeteC:
The pages in my copy are not marked like that. They are Vol. 2, page 27 ,bow C, then page 31, bow A&B. They all fall under the Sioux ,plains section, spanning 10 pages.     God Bless
