Hey Ken,
     Them pics is hard to find, bud. Found a couple....aint Apache but the bow is a low brace three-curve like theirs (first pic) the "full draw is only half way but it looks like it's going to be a circle like a bendy handle straight bow (second pic)
     Know it aint what ya wanted but hope it helps out some.....

Hey Ken,
     I cant swear to it but it looks like when he gets back to his chest it might be gonna bend in the handle? Maybe-maybe not....I will see if I can locate some more for ya.

Ken, here's one more....only problem is I aint sure what the braced profile is but ya can get an idea of the full draw arc. The pic was supposed to be taken in 1898 at the Trans-Mississippi Exposition and Indian Congress

Dont think these could miss....what with growin up shootin pennies and all.......
