Replica Takelma, Rogue River, arrow. Ocean Spray shaft (that I seasoned 16 years), agate Gunther barbed point, ponderosa pine resin, hide glue, wild turkey fletchings, mule deer leg sinew for binding, paint style based on Steve Alley's published work in The Traditional Bowyers Bible Volume 1.

 Beautiful arrow, I'd be scared of breaking the barbs off that beautiful point. She is a beauty though.

Flecha two questions. Did you dye the sinew? Second question what is the sinew wrap part way back shaft from point? Is that a fore shaft? Really is a pretty arrow
