How about "Twilight Hunter" or "Dark Harvester".

I am  SO  late getting to bed, and it's all your fault.  :saywhat:  
Here is how it happened.

I went to Powwow, saw the Sheepeater thread, tried to come up with a name, went back to the thread and read all the suggestions for the bow name, really liked "Eclipse", Googled Eclipse, saw that Hoyt has a compound called that, did some research on Sheepeater Indians, found a real neat book that was called "Mountain Spirit", all about these Shoshonean bands, put it on my Amazon wish list, thought of the name " Shapeshifter ," looked up shapeshifter, found all kinds of legends from all over the world, saw Tam Lin mentioned, looked it up because I remembered a Steeleye Span song, found the legend, then found the song, which jogged my memory about a little-known album put out in 1971 by Maddy Prior and Tim Hart called "Summer Solstice" , found it, and it then became the second entry in my Amazon wish list.

This machine is insidious!
 
Killdeer~I don't have a little black dress. Don't want a little black dress. But a bow... now  we're talking!  :thumbsup:
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I was going with Eclips than I read some more of the thread saw randy had mentioned it.

So I guess I'll throw out "Sheepeater Stic" or Black Stic.

Good Luck and She is a Beauty!!!

I throw my vote in for "Obsidian" ....Sheepeater Obsidian, since that was likely the most used stone in their points, being common in the Yellowstone.

Brent, its early in the day for me but let me think. Because of the shades of black in your new bow maybe the word 'Shadow' should be in there. Perhaps 'Shadow Eclipse.'

Good luck! Looks like a handsome bow!

How about "Invisabow" or "Peek-a-bow".  Sorry...  On a more serious note.  How about the "Sheepeater Shadow Wraith"

Seeing as how it is a little black gem of a bow, how about "Sheepeater Onyx"?

 "New Moon"

"Nero"

 I really like Mark's "Obsidian" also....

I'll say it again, you've made an awesome bow, even better!!
