Several of you have voiced and interest in traditional bow making. I was thinking about submitting a series of threads over the next few weeks, which would describe the process of making a traditional bow. I’ll send video clips of me in my shop, demonstrating the different phase of bow building. I’ve been planning on doing this anyway. Let me know if you think this would be fine and interesting for this forum. Chris
 
Yep. Count me in. Although I doubt I could hit the side of a BARN with an arrow. Now a pistol...
 
I'd love to see those.
 
There is definitely interest in this topic and it hasn't really been done here in the past. Post away.
 
ArcherHere ... haha, nice comeback ;) love to see whatever I can regarding archery.
Have you tried a takedown arrow?

Much better than the survival knife thread this should be very fun and interesting. Thank for posting this it should help onmy quest on someday making a bow.
 
That would be very cool. I'm with Rockywolf on actually being able to use it, but it'd be a nice project.
 
very cool Chris...:thumbup: definately post up some pics/vids... i recently started my first selfbow...
 
I cant wait! That sounds awesome! Gene
 
Sawweeet!........... I look forward to it.

Archer.... I didn't see any short "horseman's" type bows on your site. Do you have any experience with these? Or anyone else for that matter?
 
Awesome, :thumbup: …I would love to see them. :cool:
