Where is the Gathering?

Cool looking bow! I assume it is a native American style bow? I am pretty ignorant about these type bows, what type of range do they have? I say this because I assume they are pretty short range due to the short drawing capacity. What is the max draw length on a bow like that?
Very nice artwork on the bow BTW.

Mark , this particular Bow the max draw is 20, Snap shooting is a must, Considering it's 40# Could get quite a distance if flight shooting with a short Arrow, less paradox I would think.

Beautiful bow,very nice work.Tiller looks great as dose the finish and paint work.

Thanks Pappy, It's honor to be complimented By fine Bowyers such as yourself.
-
I sure do like those short little bows, that one is really sweet. I have some osage that would be perfect for something similar.
hmmmmm, got to get busy.

I always wondered if osage would work well with a style of Bow like this, do try.
-
great job! I love those shorties! It's just my opinion,but, if you're gonna hunt with it,short bows are far more maneuverable! Especially if you like hunting the brush.
-
I don't think they would allow hunting with this type of bow In california. >:( :) ;)
-
If you mean that Style of bow,then as long as it can send a legal hunting arrow,130 yrds,then it legal in Ca.As to what a legal hunting arrow is in Ca,that seems to be in question,other than it has to have a 7/8" wide broadhead as a minimum width.Nv states it must be at least 24" long and 400 grn arrow,so i would guess Ca to be the same,but in Nv,it has to shoot that arrow,150 yrds.Ive done it with a 37lb bow,and exceeded that mark.

Gorgeous bow! I love the art work on it..Arrows are nice too!!!
