(From the Cumberland Times -- Outdoors with Mike Sawyer):
For 15 years, Cumberland's Dale Horwath has worked on his own, learning about early American history, both from the side of the frontiersman and from the side of the Native American.
As he read, researched and learned everything he could about the period, he began to focus on Indians, especially on bows and arrows, which he started to craft.

"I've become deeply involved with making primitive bows," Horwath said recently at his Leiper Street home.

That might be putting it mildly.

Horwath, who works fulltime for CSX, became so good at making flat bows, also called self bows because they come from one piece of wood, that his bows have appeared in three movies. He got his break in the world of movie props via his distant cousin Lee Teeter, a well known artist and historian now living in Wyoming who was a consultant for the movie "Last of the Mohicans." Horwath made 33 bows for that flick.

In addition, he constructed 30 African style bows for "Heart of Darkness" and a dozen or so 10th century European bows for "Dragon Heart."
