Archery Game- Zune- Native American Indian Game
The arrows are made out of twigs, about two inches long, with three feathers fastened to each.
This game can be played by any number, each one being provided with several arrows. Holding it between his index and middle fingers and thumb, (as one holds a pen), the first player throws an arrow a distance of some ten or twelve feet.
This game can be played by any number, each one being provided with several arrows. Holding it between his index and middle fingers and thumb, (as one holds a pen), the first player throws an arrow a distance of some ten or twelve feet.
Then the second player throws, aiming to have the feathers of his arrow touch those of the one already on the ground. If he is successful, he takes both arrows, and makes another throw, when the next player aims at the arrow on the ground; if he fails, the arrow remains in place, and another player throws, and so on; each boy, taking the arrows which are touched by his arrow. The taker of the full number of arrows wins the game.
