Back after a long hiatus----hello from Tallahassee!
« on: June 04, 2013, 11:26:20 am »
I have spent the better part of ten years without building arrows or other primitives things, but I am finally ready to start learning again. I am glad to see you guys are still here and still having a good time helping each other and meeting up.

These are just some poor-quality pictures of things I made years ago, except the Zulu-stule spear, which is this month. My nephew and I are also working on a Zulu shield and a few more spears. It's been great learning.

The four-feathered arrows are rivercane. The quiver is bamboo. The one arrow with two feathers is dogwood...just put it together one day while camping.

Welcome back!  I was just in Tallahassee last week.  Y'all got some sweet wilderness up there!
Florida to Kwajalein to Turkey and back in Florida again.  Good to be home but man was that an adventure!

Thank you, PrimitiveTim.

I am actually from farther north in Georgia. North Florida is nice, but the border of Alabama and Georgia is my homeland!

Thanks Pappy and Pekane.

Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I can post pictures of some Zulu replica stuff. A shield and spears.
I appreciate the wealth of knowledge on this site.

Welcome back. And where have you been, Africa?
Lakeland, Florida
 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
