 Nice and authentic looking.
 The "tiller has to match the front profile" crowd won't like it though. ;)

Rock, that is totally badass! What a great purpose for the build too. You should be proud. Can't wait to see more pics and more of the bows you build for the Tribe!

thank you guys SO much for all of the wonderful compliments soon I will know how many more of these Bose the Menominee people want me to build this one was for free because of the gentlemen I made it for was my friend the rest of them I will be selling for probably around $300 maybe 350 or 400 I'm sure I will get faster at making them as this was only my first one ever with scalloped edges but again thank you all for the wonderful comments

  I love how the knots worked out. I just got one thing, I not trying to down any of your work is all great.  Just that one thing kinda sticks in my craw. If it's a indain hunting bow. The your handle WAYYYYYYYY TO WIDE. I'm sure the MENONINEE never made there bows (HUNTING BOWS) handles that wide.

 SORRY ABOUT THAT JUST MY OPINION.

 The father your arrows are from center of the bow. The closer your arrow spline has to be. Not a real problem for most people.
