I love how in depth this goes, you really don't see these kinds of videos from a historical viewpoint very often. I know this is the product of years of research by Russell as well as his own experimentation and usage of everything we see him using in the video. This is lovely to see!

Thank you. Russell does a lot of hard work!

This has been so wonderful and educational in historic preservation of how the Native Americans made their weapons. Thank you.

Glad you enjoyed it. While filming this video, it was neat to see the excitement and wonder on the kids' faces as they watched him work.

thanks for your presentation Russell!

Excellent video. Being a fan of archery and most things of years gone by, I've been learning arrow making in its earliest simplest forms and wish to eventually hunt successfully with bow and arrows made entirely from my hands and nature.

Outstanding..personified..(from an old school Eagle Scout).

You're welcome and thank you.

G'day from down under and nice one. Some heat straightening and feather shaping, in one video. Nice, to see fire being shown as part of our group experience of existentance. Aboriginals in Australia heat hardened and straightened their spears for centuries, before metal turned up.

We're glad you liked our video.

From where does JYF Museums learn about how native warriors went about building their weapons? Fascinating to witness.

Yaira, thank you for the question. Russell and our interpretive staff rely on knowledge gained from examining archeological artifacts, surviving examples in museum collections, oral tradition and written accounts.

As a choctaw i agree

Hi, very good video! How do you make an authentic quiver? How do you attach the quiver to your belt? Can you make a video of it? Thank you very much! Best regards, Tobias

Be nice if was in close up mode. Cant see what you're doing.

(Pi:ląhuk. Nahą:pipi Charles mįkilá:kewa. Raleigh, NC watí:wa. Míma Monacan Yesą.) Thank you. Good day. My name is Charles. I live in Raleigh, NC. I am of the Monacan people. This technique is very similar to the way we make arrows. With 100lb draw you want to use Pecan, other Hickories, or Osage Orange, less river cane. For an atlatl go with river cane and fletch with turkey vulture feathers 🪶. While havesting that Osage orange wood grab some thorns and thistle for your blowgun. Aye! 🙌 Thank you for honoring the way and sharing the art. 🤙
