Description

On the trail of the Osage bow

Dean Torges, a well-known bow maker in the USA, has incorporated his love of the simple wooden bow into this book. We accompany him through the selection of the log, the felling and splitting, the processing of the staves, the steaming, straightening and drying. We look over his shoulder at every step of the process and learn his valuable tricks and tips. Bow making is not a dry manual here, but a cocking process, a story that begins with the planning for a hunting trip, continues in Dean's workshop and ends with the description of the hunt in Canada. With many loving drawings by Jan Adkins. 216 pages, Din A5, paperback
