Here is the Odawa (Ottawa).....the arrow in the photos of the shawnee and the ottawa has 24" of useable shaft and the arrow in the Ojibwe bow has 28" of useable shaft FYI

Guess I should have looked at the draw pics better before I posted, eh? I'm proud to report that I have fixed that nasty stiff upper limb on the Shawnee bow ::) at least it's round now.....

Incredibly beautiful work as always ... Your bows are truly inspiring... I love the tips on the darker bow that kinda look like oak leaves, I have to try something like that sometime.

Thanks again to all of you for the very kind comments.....but special to wildman for the fur and tomahawk, and tattoo dave for his very fine leather that was used for two of the bandoliers, you two made it a whole easier, thanks
