josh I think yer gonna find that the opinion of most of us is that the salt curing is a
whole bunch of malarkey. I wouldn't waste your time on it. Just my opinion. Read the article in PA
and thats the only reference I know of.

Richard Longbow and his "process" stirs up a lot of passion here. He seems to keep turning up in the magazine, too. Not sure why. Maybe because he is Native American?

  I was getting ready to move this. I thought it was about curing skins. But then after reading tthe thread I saw that I might as well leave it here. We don't have a Saltwater cure and Buffalo Pi$$ section.

Kind of reminds me of a story of a woman that always cut the ends off her hams when she baked them. She said that was the way her mother did it and she had the best hams around.  That secret "recipe" got passed from mother to daughter several times. When one of the daughters finally asked her great-grandmother what cutting the ends of the ham did, she replied, "fits in my pan that way".   :D 

Maybe his ancestor dropped it in the ocean and it took.  ::)

  Otoe, Kinda'  a long ride to the Ocean for the ancestors just to make a tourist bow. I think he said he was Sioux.

I didn't catch the article about saltwater curing, but I did meet Richard Longbow at a local shop a couple of months ago. I was picking up some miscellaneous small items and the owner introduced him to me. We had a long conversation about bows, hunting, flyfishing, guiding, the whole lot. He's a Sioux, but he's lived here in Maine for years. I have his phone # and was just thinking about giving him a call a couple of weeks ago. He didn't have a bow with him, but the shop owner recommended I take a look at them. He was pretty taken with the ones he had shot.

 ;D Rich, you don't need to register for them to take our money and serve you watered down JD.  You must be a frequent flier.  Justin
