handle rework
« on: November 28, 2015, 01:49:44 pm »
A friend of mine with native American Heritage showed some interest in my bow building hobby.He asked if I could sell him one witch I replied no,but I could give him one.i rework and elm sapling I had kicking around that had a simple leather wrap.after replacing the leather with jute and some knot work by my wife,some beads and a grey owl feather I think it gives it a more natural look.no arrow rest and side nocks also.thx's for looking!bush!
Some like motorboats,I like kayaks,some like guns,I like bows,but not the wheelie type.

If your in the states the owl feather is a giant nono, everything looks great though
failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.
