Youngbowyer,
Half eye is only partially right with his pic, you don't have to hold the arrow primitive style (pants are optional).

Thank You for sharing that photo !!! What is the origin ??? The symmetry of the bow is perfect, and done in the most primitive of styles no less. When you compare how far we've come collectively as a civilization, nobody seems to be able to come up with an all wood bow that is going to perform leaps and bounds better than that one !!! I really like the fact that we can put literally millions of bits of info on a microchip, but can't do the same with a selfbow !!! How would you like to be able to watch him craft his bow with the most basic of tools that likely he made also?? He's got great form too :^) !!!

See TBB vol 4 and read Badgers chapter he explains why the front view profile should define the tiller, whether circular or elliptical.
