The '''Feather Bow''' is [[Tiny Kong]]'s personal weapon in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. She can buy it from [[Funky Kong]] at [[Funky's Store|his store]] for three [[Banana Coin|Banana Bunch Coin]]s when she first visits there. The Feather Bow uses sharp, red feathers for ammo, and due to its size and weight, the feather has a weaker aim than the other weapon ammunition. To compensate, the Feather Bow shoots ammo faster than any ammo. The Feather Bow is the only weapon that is not a firearm and the only weapon to not use a type of fruit as its ammo. Tiny can use the Feather Bow to activate [[Target Switch|Feather Switch]]es. The Feather Bow has the same triggering sound regardless whether it is equipped with ammo.


The '''Feather Bow''' was a weapon used by [[Tiny Kong]]. She used it during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. As the name suggests, it is a crossbow that shoots feathers as projectiles. The weapon was created by [[Funky Kong]] to aid in the [[Kong Family]]'s quest to stop [[King K. Rool]] from blowing up [[Donkey Kong Island]].
When Tiny opens a red [[Supply Crate]], she obtains five to ten darker feathers for ammo. The dark feathers can home in on the closest enemy to either the crosshair or Tiny.
 
During the final battle against [[King K. Rool|King Krusha K. Rool]], Tiny must use her Feather Bow while in K. Rool's left shoe and shoot a feather at whichever toe that K. Rool lifts to turn it red.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* In the game's official artworks of Tiny Kong posing with the Feather Bow, the feathers are gray and have the calamus closer to the back of the weapon; but in the game, the feathers are pink and the calamus part is facing the direction it is going.
*In the artwork of Tiny holding a Feather Bow, the calamus is closer to the back of the weapon. In the game itself, the calamus points in the same direction as the Feather Bow.
* The Feather Bow's triggering sound is the same with and without any ammunition, but the additional sound is the feather being fired (with ammunition only).
