Lone Star Bow and Arrow Sharpshooter of Glacier Park Tribe
Lone Star, the Glacier Park Indian boy, is described as one of the most accurate shots in his nation. He uses a sarvis wood bow once used by Chief Three Bears to hunt big game in the Rockies fifty years ago. As a full blood Blackfoot, he inherits hunting prowess from buffalo hunters and can kill more rabbits with metal pointed arrows than many city boys with shotguns.
