Nature of the Village 2008-Jen makes & shoots her first bow

At the Nature of the Village, Jen Carman makes and shoots her first bow. Hewn from vine maple, it has a 50 lb draw. Proud to be using a locally harvested wood, gathered ourselves, this will be one of many bows the TrackersTEAMS Immersion program makes. In order to internalize any skill we do it more than once.

good job folks!

:1, this video really portrays the whole experience pretty accurately. heh, good job tony. I'd also like to add that besides not be overwhelming, Brian's style also isn't babying either. for me, it's a really nice mix of insightful instruction and autonomous figuring it out by myself - all the while knowing full well that i've got an expert at my fingertips if/when i need advice or pointers on the next step, :1
