A Mojave bow
« on: July 19, 2010, 01:39:46 pm »
Mojave Inspired bow. really liked a pic of some mojave natives with their bows so i decided to make one. The pic didt have the bows painted but after some research I found many were in fact painted so I did a design similar to one I saw. Bow is made of ash as oppose to willow or mesquite 61 inches long leather handle and hemp wrapping #31 @ 28 inches.

thankyou, the paint is regular acrylic and the bow is also sealed with some type of acrylic sealer out of a spray can.

Nice!  You guys are really starting to warm me up to the NA bows.  I like this one a lot!

If it doesn't rap the lintel, it might not be a longbow.
