Traditional Archery, Wildlife Film, and a whole lot more

Kiss my Osage

Welcome to the Twisted Stave, where visual media meets traditional woodsmanship.  My name is Clay Hayes, and I am passionate about giving voice to the wild lands and simple pursuits that have given me so much.  Here at the Twisted Stave you’ll find links to traditional archery & bow building, hunting stories and how to articles, videos, outdoor photography, and much more.  So pull up and sit a while.  Here the campfire never dies. 

Below is the teaser for a film I’ve been working on for the past three years. It’ll be coming out in the spring of 2014.  Check it out.  There’s nothing else like it….
