I'm just starting to get into archery and what a coincidence coming across this information. I'm a white guy, but, in my ancestry, one of my cousin's was Cynthia Anne Parker. She was taken from Fort Parker during a Commanche raid when she was a little girl, raised with the Commanches and gave birth to Quannah Parker that was the last dominant Commanche Chief until his death in 1911. He was honored by the U.S. Government for having deciding to avoid the extinction of the Commanches that would've taken place had they decided to have a final war with the Government. But before their surrender, did help organize a war that united different Indian tribes to ban together and fought for their way of life in a brutal war that took a toll on the Government troops and saved face in the eyes of the Indian Nations resistance to wrongly be relocated onto reservations. I'm not Indian, but I'm proud to be related to a Great Indian Chief, even if it's not related by my blood and his, but through his Mother.
GREAT job. 👍👍
If I had a bow made by Willie Pekah himself, I would cherish it for the rest of my life.

Thank you for these stories.
I enjoyed listening a lot. Thank you Willie! I hope to attempt a bow and some arrows very soon :)
Excellent presentation. 💯🏹
I think my next bow endeavor over the years will be a tamarack backed possibly or not short bow. Thanks for sharing great information.
What he said about when you sinew back it or raw hid it you can shoot it in the rain it doesn't effect the bow at all.
