Need Primative Bow String
« on: October 30, 2013, 03:23:24 pm »
I have a bow from the Hadza Tribe. they are thought to be teh original hunter gathers and continue to live that way. Though the numbers of tribes still existing are dwendling due to outside influences. They anticipate they will be gone in the next 20 years. Sad
I am looking for someone who can make a new gut string for the bow as my dog ate the original!!!
Please send me any info towards having this awesome bow restored.
Thanks
Cynthia

failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.

Yes it's easy to make your own - getting the rawhide is probably the hardest part ;)
