Trip to the flint knapper/bow maker

KIMG0497.JPG
We recently took a trip to the middle of the country to a friend of mines house. His obsession and passion is bow making(and arrows). He also enjoys Flint knapping, the art of turning rocks into arrowheads and other items.PSX_20180326_225151.jpg

I'm going to try to do nice clean post, so please be patient. I appreciate all the help so far all you kind people.

SPECIAL THANKS TO

Tony Taul

A true great friend

I would like to try this too if there would a chance. I see you have lots of arrows. Are those real the ones in the background?

Yes. It takes different types of arrows for different types and sizes of bows. It is what this guy lives for, so he has a lot of them. Here's a few of his bows.KIMG0561.JPGKIMG0531.JPGKIMG0534.JPG

Such an interesting craftmanship. Those surely looks good for display too lol! I like how they come in varying styles and sizes.

Yes, they are as beautiful as they are functional. He definitely takes a lot of pride in what he does!

Have you saw I posted the first part of the story. I think it turned out okay. :/ We'll see. I wish you the best as you go through your day!

Cool hobby. :D I've tried shooting a bow only once when I was visiting my aunt in Netherlands last year and I enjoyed it a lot.

this is so cool, I demand a video!!!!!!!
and better yet the making process and than the shooting!@@!

I will do what I can my brother. If you demand it however, I WILL make it happen. I was just going to do a three-part piece about our trip, however you mentioning it makes me want to make a video. How long do you think a video should be for something like this?

Those are some great arrowheads. I have some that are the real deal found on the lands of my grandmother in Alabama. I want to do a post on them soon

You should definitely do that! I love stories that have a personal side. I also love pictures and paintings that include a good story. Thank you so much for your upvotes. And especially for taking time out of your day to comment. I hope you have a great day and all of my love to you and all of yours.
