Those are beauties.  What a cool gift.  I am glad she didnt give them to her son.

I noticed you said sinew on the belly of the one.  I cant say I have ever heard of that.  I wonder if any of our bowyers here have tried that.  Was it in combination with a concave belly, or was that the other that had the concave belly.  Dont forget the photos of the flight arrows. ;)

Thanks for sharing!

Was it wrapped around the limb to hold the sinew on the back down tighter?

Bryce,the sinew was parallel to the limbs.not wraped around.only one bow has the sinew on both sides.the bellies are only slightly concave.here is a pic of her arrows in her field box.

I have an old arrow box that is just about the same.  It was my Grandpas.  Very similar,  not quite that full though.  Very cool find
