Tweetable Quotes:
“Sinew is basically the tendon of an animal. So you know you got the deer, or you got a human, we all got the achilles tendon. So that gives us the jump. That gives the deer the spring.” – Row Watson
“I actually source all of my wood. Some people pay for all of their wood. Either way, if you are paying for it, you work to get the money. You had to buy it. I just do the work.” – Row Watson
“I used to make the little bows as a kid, and mess around and shoot bows when I was a kid. I shot a lot of slingshots. I made slingshots too.” – Row Watson
