Bow Id
« on: March 09, 2011, 03:34:44 pm »
Not sure if this the place for this, so please move if not.  A friend of mine gave this bow an 2 arrows to me an I have just a little info about it. Maybe some of you know more about it. This bow is 41" ntn an the quiver handle riser is 17". I believe this bow was a novelty gift shop tourist thing an came from africa. Arrows are 26" an feathers are mounted thru a double split in cane type material, bow is made out of some kind of bamboo material . Anyways here it is an thought you my enjoy looking at it what ever it is. Later Bob

I think thats really cool to have the quiver mounted like that.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

I have a feeling that this is some sort of trick.  I'm pretty sure this is your new experimental design and your looking for feedback. ;D
