Title: Osage flat bow with all the fixins

I forged the knife and tomahawk and used them to make this flat bow. Had a hand in tannin the elk and deer for the quiver I made. The hard part is learning to take a descent picture.

Beautiful set up. ;D If you can figure it out(believe me, I know it's hard ;)) will you post more pics of your bow; full draw and unbraced and a close up of your quiver, knife and hawk.   Pat

The bow has definitely proven itself. ;)
   I don't find it odd that folks that are making primitive stuff would have problems with technology. ;) It took me 2 years :o before I could post decent pics.      Pat

Your equipment is a real treat to look at.  Frankly, it validates the "primitiveness" of this site. 
More pictures of the bow including full draw would be great. 
Look at the bottom of the thread as your post your message.  It says "Additional Options"  Click on these words.  Then you will see the word Attach with a open bar next to it.  At the right of the bar is the word Browse.  Click on it to navigate to whereever in your computer or your camera the pictures are.  Click on the picture and it will automatically be part of your post. 
Good Luck.
