@jozsefimre9902 when osage orange gets repeatedly oiled it turns that chocolate brown colour also osage orange is commonly used among Cherokee and native americans so yeah probs osage orange
@@derekskelton6718 I think the Cherokee would have done a lot better without the rest of humanity interfering. He belongs to his native tribe. The more he has to adapt his culture to English and voyeurism(, in order to globalise his culture), the less Cherokee he and his descendants become.
@@richardjbarlow yeah, but there's some of us non Cherokee who would like to learn some of the things he knows & can't travel to where he is to learn from a true master!
@@richardjbarlow A lot of the Cherokees are white and Cherokee, they intermarried, it's apart of their story now, and apart of their being. They honor ALL of their ancestors.
Thank you for your video. This reminds me of my grandfather and watching him make arrows and tools. I feel he was watching this with me. Thank you again.
As a black man i watch this video and i am so amazed that people a can go through so much struggles and still maintain a sense of who they are to the point they can teach others. Much love all the way from the islands of Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean my Native American brothers and sisters.
How do you know he had to struggle with anything? Race don't mean you struggle with anything. I too am N.A. I was raised in a home. I didn't look at it as a struggle. I worked had a bed and food. Got out joined the USMC. The struggle came when raising 3girls. That thought we were 2nd class . Because we were financially strapped for a while. I never asked the ( welfare system) for any help. There are so many that abuse that system everyday. My point being. Every man's struggles are not the same. Race has nothing to do with it. Victimhood is in the mind. I call them something for nothing crowd.
What an incredibly interesting gentleman. These skills need to be kept alive and passed on. There will come a time when mankind will need them. Thank you for passing on these skills.🙏🙏🙏
I love his mindset. We are all connected as humans but the beauty of life is how we have our own unique paths we take. And the respect of the lands, in hawaii we call it malama aina, much love for folks like this 🤙🏽
I love this man's wisdom, enthusiasm and his TRUTH! He has learned and as he says, it is our responsibility to pass that knowledge and wisdom on, to keep it alive! We, today do not do this, and that is to our detriment! A sad thing, or we would know more and respect the land and the world around us! We no longer do that! Thank you for posting this!
osiyo, i am from wales (cymru) uk, i love watching the craftsmanship, art and traditional skills. something long lost in modern society. no time for true genuine love, friendship or taking time to learn from our elders. Something so peace full and at tranquil watching Noel at work. Diolch yn fawr! thank you.
A true historian. A gift from the past. Fantastic to watch, listen and learn. He is truly a gateway to another time. What a fabulous culture. Thank you for your vlogs....
I grew up in Buffalo NY near a few Native American tribes. What got me into bow hunting and bow making was watching a Native American take salmon out of the river I fished with a bow. Just started watching Noel Grayson and I too have started sharing my bow making skills with others. Thank you my Native American blood brother.
The love you have for your craft, nature, and life is such a gift. Thank you for sharing it with the next generation. I think it’s the second greatest gift we can give them next to Jesus. God bless
He showed me how to Flintknap at Oka Kapossa in Tuscumbia, AL, over 10 years ago. Every chance l have to watch him work to listen to him speak l take it because he tells things in a way that l remember it, and l pass it along to my sons as well. I will never be the stone aged artist that Heis, but l have made successfully operatingb ows and arrows that have taken meat. Many thanks to you Master Grayson.
A wise, philosophical being. The world needs people like you now more than ever. Thank you for an interesting and educational video. All the best to you.............brann
Our world needs more people like Noel Grayson, I would very much like to meet him, so humble and connected to the earth and mother nature. I hope to see more videos from him..thank you Noel for being who you are and showing me things I didnt know..I really appreciate it..
Not the first time I’ve heard this advice on how to hunt and how to take an animal and that you owe it to the animal to take the best shot you can, BUT it’s still the best advice on the subject I’ve ever been told. It would be a blessing to have a teacher like this man. Thank you for being you
Mr Grayson these videos are absolutely wonderful. You have already taught me so very much. I look forward to all your videos. Me and my family used to spend a week every year in Stilwell. Bro Joe and Diane Grayson and the Polecat family and Ofields were some of our close friends. If I ever get the chance to get back up there I would be very honored to meet you. I would love to go back to the museum. Thank you 🙏 so much
Completely agree with the idea that no matter how well we may know a skill, it's always great to open ourselves to instruction from others to gain perspectives we may not have thought of before. Thank you for sharing these cultural traditions and knowledge!
Same here. My great-great grandmother was Cherokee. Even listed on the Dawes Rolls. But none of our history got passed down. In the past 18 months I've picked up primitive bow-making and have become obsessed with it. Even primitive bows are complex tools.
Tanisi Noel and miigwech. A great video. Would love to spend some time with you. It would be time well spent and enjoyable. It is all so interesting and fascinating. The anishnabe have so much of value, to teach us all. Thank you once again, Rob
Thank you for sharing this with us. My father past on to me a love of traditional English and native american archery. May you prosper and live long and happy Noel Grayson.
Having worked with Noel many times at various events, I will attest that he is one of them most knowledgeable teachers of archery construction that I know....and I know a few.
What a amazing person keeping that knowledge alive, showing respect and how things should be and if we followed that route this one and only planet we call home wouldn't be in this mess.
I have been following this Man for a short time now. I wish I had found him much sooner. I hope the youth will watch, listen, and learn from him and pass it on. I hope many of the older will do so also. I am now 70, but when very young, I learned to track and hunt. Much on my own. It just seemed to come naturally. I was drafted and sent to Vietnam where I learned more and honed the skills I had. Once home, * had a much different outlook at human life and wildlife. I only hunted if I needed food. I loved to track, and continued to do that to learn more about the animals and how they lived. My respect was constantly increased for them. I used my abilities as a Lawman and FF/Medic. I was often called out by various agencies if they had someone run. I taught others what to look for. In Fire & EMS, I was able to use this to find children who had wondered off, lost adults and others. Today I am on a ranch, watching 6 steers grow up. They will go to sale later on, but I am able to enjoy nature as it runs the course. Unfortunately, * was almost 50 before I was made aware I am of Cherokee and German heritage. But, I've tried to learn and enjoy as much as I can. This also explains a lot of what I was able to do naturally over the years. I have much more to learn. I try to keep myself very healthy, so maybe I will slow down around 80.
Thank you for "keeping the knowledge alive". I wish that we had kept horsemanship knowledge alive. People do not know what amazing horsemen the Native Americans were. Now horses are suffering because the horse masters are all gone. I wish that we had kept the horsemanship knowledge alive.
The wealth of knowledge, and the wisdom on how to use the knowledge, you've accumulated over a lifetime that can never be stolen, but it can be lost, if one does not give out the knowledge it dies
Thank you so much. The only reason you have to work so hard to try & find people to teach & then to teach them something that should have been passed down from father to son & mother to daughter. If it wasn’t for the Europeans (of which I am one) thick headed greed & his heavy handed approach to everything he does we would all be enjoying a much better way of life. 🙏🏼 thank you again 🙏🏼
Being humble and always being teachable. 😊 This man is amazing, great video. I have been into archery for only a couple of months, using a Recurve bow. After watching this it makes me excited to really practice more. Shooting without any sight is difficult for me, but I really want to be able to do it.
I would love to have the honor of meeting this man and having the pleasure and opportunity of learning absolutely everything he could possibly teach me
Thank you big brother for sharing your family's history with us all I just got into archery I'm very much a novice and I love learning about native American archery and many others all over the world I'll pray that God's love watch over you and your kinsman 🏹🦅
My guy! You make me proud to carry a blue card. My family is from tahlequah, ok. I grew up in California and this video means a lot to me as someone who was so disconnected growing up. Thanks OsiyoTV.
I met this man with my family he inspired me tremendously, After that day , I had a vision Of being part of the bird clan And my job is a messenger. AmazingThank you for all your hard work
I learned from the e Seneca nation to respect the animal you take down. I knelt with every animal I have shot thanked it form coming full circle man's thank the heavens for the gift I was given. Maybe in a former lifetime I too was an American Indian.
I'm so glad to see that the native people of our country are getting platforms to share the knowledge on these people have been done so wrong from the very start and still so willing to share with everyone that is true grace
Your words are a lot like my grandmother's and my fathers. Only take what you need and be thankful. Great video.
My first traditional bow came from Noel; in time i became a bowmaker as well. His knowledge has travelled far.
@jozsefimre9902 when osage orange gets repeatedly oiled it turns that chocolate brown colour also osage orange is commonly used among Cherokee and native americans so yeah probs osage orange
Noel seems so humble and genuine, I wish we had more people like him, this world would be a better place imho.
then become a people like him for that is our key to a true feutcher
this man need a masterclass

There are not many videos that made me as happy as this one did. Thanks, Noel, for teaching us.
I would like to thank you for teaching the old ways....
The old ways should be kept alive. We should never forget who we are. From an old Cree woman.
Thank you Noel for knowledge showing the world Cherokee
Every community would be lucky to have a guy like that trying to teach and strengthen his community.
Thank you for your video. This reminds me of my grandfather and watching him make arrows and tools. I feel he was watching this with me. Thank you again.
Thank you for your time & teaching. 👍☯️🙇🏾♂️
I enjoyed this video. I am fascinated with my Cherokee heritage
id Love to learn from this brother. He reminds me of my Grandpa and great grandpa so much. Even talks like me.

Noel Grayson needs a TH-cam channel so much knowledge that needs to be shared
Would love to learn from Noel hands on . Great video , Awesome heart.
That old Osage bow looks amazing. The color it turns to is unbelievable
I could set for hours and hours and listen to him speak...that would be an amazing experience!
very much appreciater sharing your stories! will continue to make a big difference!
I love his mindset. We are all connected as humans but the beauty of life is how we have our own unique paths we take. And the respect of the lands, in hawaii we call it malama aina, much love for folks like this 🤙🏽
Watching this video brought tears to my eyes, your words and wisdom echo that of my fathers.....
I honestly cried watching this. His way of life is so desperately needed NOW. Respect all living creatures if you're taking it life.
A man whose knowledge also has a foundation of great wisdom . . This man deserves the respect of every American .
So much pride. A great thing to watch.
very interesting. he has remembered and is teaching our true purpose.
Wish I could sit down and talk with Noel. So much wisdom
I love this man's wisdom, enthusiasm and his TRUTH! He has learned and as he says, it is our responsibility to pass that knowledge and wisdom on, to keep it alive!

Id love to spend just an hour with this man. A fountain a knowledge.
His students are most fortunate to be there as he shares his knowledge, understanding & traditions; wish I could have been there for that.
A true historian. A gift from the past. Fantastic to watch, listen and learn. He is truly a gateway to another time. What a fabulous culture. Thank you for your vlogs....

That amazing ..I thought it was just me knowledge of beautiful heritage and craftmanship in daily life is beautiful ❤️❤️ thank you for sharing this
Thank you. I cried a little, just admiring all of this. I really wish I knew how to return to my ancestors way of life.
1 wise fella, great to see knowledge being shared. Thanks Noel.
Your kindness and wisdom is a blessing to the next generation

The love you have for your craft, nature, and life is such a gift. Thank you for sharing it with the next generation. I think it’s the second greatest gift we can give them next to Jesus. God bless
So much respect. His elders are very proud.
People could learn alot from this guy, very interesting. This type of knowledge is in danger of being lost to time. Hope to see more of these videos
It's awesome to see this beautiful tradition is being carried on.
Thanks Noel for passing on your knowledge
Simply wonderful. As an archer, hunter, father, and learner, we need more of this.
I graduated from Northeastern State University and Tahlequah is a Fantastic little town. Fond memories and rich culture.
