Northern Paiute Bow and Arrow DVD (NEW!!)

Jeff Martin of the copycat YouTube channel Primitive Lifeways and any of his associates are BANNED FROM PURCHASING THIS VIDEO due to his previous unethical and undercutting business practices he engaged in when we released our previous full length DVD.  Now...on to the description...

Primitive Pathways proudly announces its latest video release: Making the Northern Paiute Bow and Arrows! This project took 5 1/2 years to film, edit and complete and is the most labor-intensive instructional video we've produced so far.  In it, you'll learn every step in constructing the elusive archery gear of the Northern Paiute. Billy Berger and Steve Allely once again join forces and combine their skills of researching, replication, and professional production to create this 2-hour adventure that you'll watch again and again.

You'll get to see very rare authentic Paiute archery artifacts in both private collections and the Univ. of Oregon Museum of Anthropology.  Then Billy and Steve collect the very same materials the Paiutes used for their bows and arrows and they show you each step in contructing the entire set-up from start to finish.  All aspects of construction are covered: Cutting the wood, shaping the bow, sinew backing, tillering, twisting a sinew bowstring, collecting the reed for arrows, straightening the reed, painting, fletching, making and mounting the stone point, and shooting the bow.  Sprinkled throughout the video are the "seasonings" that make an instructional video something much more than the sum of its parts.  We interview a living Northern Paiute elder for his insights on the bow and arrows of his people and how they hunted.  And we visit numerous significant archaeological sites of the Northern Paiute.  

Most videos would end there.  But that's where this video is just getting started.  With the completed weapons, Billy and Steve then embark on the epic challenge of putting their skills to the ultimate test where they use these weapons in real hunts.  Experience the thrill of the hunt as though you were right there, with amazing over-the-shoulder viewpoints of arrows in flight with the goal of putting meat in the pot.  The action is non-stop as Billy and Steve pursue numerous small game.  Were they successful?  You'll have to watch the video to find out...but here's a hint... You'll get to see just how effective replica Paiute weapons really are in the hands of experienced primitive bowhunters.  We'll leave it at that.

This 2 hour, 2-disc set is an unforgettable adventure of mystery, enlightenment, and adventure.  Follow the footsteps of the Northern Paiute deep into the past as we examine their artifacts, ressurect their ancient way of life and reconstruct these long forgotten weapons and bring them into their rightful place in the modern world.  The first 75 orders will receive signed copies autographed by both Steve and Billy. 

STREAMING VERSION WILL BE AVAILABLE SOON!
