Extremely well-fitted bow—this crossbow does NOT require any wedges as typically needed!
 
Made from an extra fancy piece of tiger maple wood—also called curly maple. Simply beautiful stock! Heat treated with iron nitrate to bring out the stripes that give curly maple its signature "tiger" look. Just in time for the year of the tiger, and while not quite large enough to kill a tiger, this crossbow will reliably kill anything up to the size of a chipmunk, or medium-sized bird such as a mourning dove. Lub Taub (stock) measures 22 inches long and 0.40 inches thick. The nta hneev (bow) measures 26 inches long, 0.50 inches thickness in the center, and distally tapers out to 0.375 inches. 
 
With the included light bamboo arrows, it can effectively kill chipmunks with an ethically placed shot. With a heavier arrow, made from aluminum, or tipped with a steel broadhead, this bow would be capable of killing squirrels.
