This replica Kiowa arrow is copied after original ones. The shaft is made from a shoot of wild rose and has a 'V' shapped flared bow string nock typically seen on the Southern Plains that helped facilitate the pinch grip arrow released used by the Kiowa. The shaft is also grooved with three straight lines which when fire hardened help keep the shaft from warping. The iron trade point is more of a southern plains style and is made out of an old barrel hoop and lashed in with sinew. The cresting is old laundry bluing which was common on the southern plains and red pigment which I found along an old wagon road where a crate of red pigment had fallen off and broken open many years ago. Fletch is male peacock wing feathers painted with oil paints to simulate red tail hawk which the original arrows had. The feathers are wrapped down with sinew. and glued down to the shaft with hide glue . Southern plains arrows are often muck sleeker than the central or Northern plains arrows |
