Even though many Paiutes didn't hunt rabbits this way, it definetly felt very much like I was looking into the past when I watched this. Beautifully made bow and arrows btw. Made my first obsidian tipped arrow last week. 33 inches, made of some sort of hardwood, 3 fletch with turkey feathers. Arrowhead was 1 inch by 2 inches. Made about a dozen primitive arrows before but from the looks of it you've made hundreds. Thanks for sharing this hunt!
@primitivepathways8 күн бұрын
You're totally right...I'm pretty sure the Paiutes hunted rabbits with the long, low nets strung through the sagebrush and then a line of hunters would scare the rabbits into the nets. That, along with clubs, would have been the best, most efficient way to hunt rabbits and get lots of meat and skins in a very short period of time. If a lone hunter happened to get an arrow into an occasional rabbit he certainly would, but that hunting technique wasn't something the tribe could rely on for consistent food. Since we live in the modern era, I had to follow state game laws and hunt them with bows....which was fine with me! It wasn't easy, but I really do enjoy roaming through the desert with my Paiute bow....

That’s some excellent accuracy and penetration! The arrowhead really does make all the difference, obsidian is known to be ridiculously sharp aswell, even sharper than steel

In your new video do you go over primitive paints? I’m curious as to what you used to get the green/teal color on your replica arrows.
@primitivepathways27 күн бұрын
No I didn't cover paints because I didn't have enough time. The green paint is a natural pigment I found eroding out of a roadcut in eastern Oregon. It's identical to the green color that several old artifacts were painted with, and I'm fairly certain it was the same pigment.

I had the exact same experience with my 30lb sinew backed juniper bow. I tested on a doe that i just got and it got through both sides of the deer with tiny little stone points and the arrows total weight was 310 grains from 10 yards. I would assume that they are deadly even out to 30 yards
@primitivepathwaysАй бұрын
The only thing is that lightweight reed arrows leave the bow at higher speed, but they tend to lose velocity more dramatically at longer range. Heavier hardwood arrows leave the bow at a slower speed, but they keep their speed and momentum much better at longer distances. But with the right bow/arrow combination, you're right...even at 30 yards those little stone points are deadly.

You just cant shoot! Or own a crap bow/arrow set up! Lucky squirrels = Bad advertising! Archer's paradox is putting your arrows all over the place or all long distance shoots as there is no power in your strikes. Tune your arrows
@primitivepathwaysАй бұрын
Haha...obviously you're a troll who's jealous. My arrows were flying pretty straight, so you might wanna lay off the drugs because I don't know what you're smoking. If you think you can do it better, go ahead and try it. Spend several years traveling across the country researching the old bows. Make your own bow and arrows based on archaeological examples and get it to shoot straight. Be sure to film all your own hunts too. Then try to bag a squirrel with it. And be sure to show all your misses. Oh...and fund it all yourself....don't get any grants from universities or any other institutions. Then post your video and let me critique it.
