That is very cool, I read that those little bows were usually made as gifts to individuals but that is about all I know

It sure looks BIG on my computer.  :rolleyes:  

Yeah, I think they were gifts/promotional items and pretty cool.

Lon is right , I have one as well , left handed , I spoke to Gail Martin and Larry Hatfield about them .
They were made one year (cant remember exact year) to give away to people that they knew that had children. There were 9 of them made. Great find .

Probably stacks like a bandit past 12".

Thanks guys for the info. I'm a junky for anything miniture so I couldn't pass it up. I'm going to make a walnut case and a set of arrows for it. I'll post when I'm done. Scott

Nice Scott!

Does it actually shoot arrows or is it just for show?

Yes it will shoot. It shoots the 12" arrows pretty quick. I tried to teach my 2 yr. old grandaughter how to shoot it but she didn't understand to let go of the string. I'll keep trying!!

I love it! Nice job on the arrows and the case.
