    I was thinking of dressing up as Nicolas Cage in The Weather Man (suit, bow, and arrow), like this picture:



    Does anyone know where I can get a bow and an arrow pack to put on my back like that? And without spending too much?

    Thanks.

    Check around at thrift stores or pawn shops for a bow, I would think.
    Or eBay?

    For the quiver (the arrow holder), you could likely make a simple one yourself from paper mache, and then simply glue a fabric you like around the outside...sew it onto a strap to go around you, and you're good to go.

    2009 photos and 2008 photos ...uhmmm...and what I have evolving...

    I'm an Archer, and a lot of us are actually very cool guys. Find an Archery Club, through your local Archery Shop. I'm sure somebody will be more than happy to let you borrow a recurve bow (not strung!) and a back quiver of cheapie arrows for Halloween.

    For authenticity's sake, the bow in the picture is a three-piece Take-Down, possibly a Bear or a Ben Pearson, BTW.
