Also, another thing (Not sure if you mentioned it or not) but before using the bow, warm it up by rubbing your hands up and down on it. It prevents it from breaking even more
hey man can you do something? I actually tried to make a liquid bandage from moss. I read it in an old book. I cleaned it and crushed it into a paste but i had no wounds. could you try this out
you sould make avideo showing how to shoot a survivor bow, i rally want to learn, especially with the bow you made its really good, best i have seen on you tube
@wolfbushcraft thank you so much for pointing out not to cut the outside edge of the bow, i tried to make several bbows, and they all broke when i tried to string them, them recently i made one, and tried what you said, i didnt touch the outside edge and this bow works great, and no breaks or cracks
He is very correct. Making and using a survival bow is very difficult. If you've got the string, you're better off using it for a trap or using it as a fishing line. This guy knows survival.
i have VERY little experience with bowcraft. in fact the only bow i EVER made was a 3 ft (estimate) bush bow from a single dried sapling. i even used fly fishing line for the bowstring XD
There are a couple vids about making flemish bow strings on the tube. The guy does a good job. Also look into some of the fast bows. Very simple survival bows that actually work. Not pretty but aren't meant to be. Will kill bunnies and other small game tho. Personally I make the Apache double bows.
as its a survival bow i used paracord...i fit the string by placing my foot on lower limb and pulling up and slipping string over notch...bows strings in the wild can be made by splicing nettles and strong roots etc...
Great video, I like the tip on not carving away at the outer edge. I've tried and failed lots of times at making a bow, probably cause I'm weakening the outer edge. Any other woods you recommend for a bow besides ash?
Would of never guessed he was english just from the intro. Nice accent man.

Question. Do you not shoot from the middle of the bow? i heard that.
Do you need to dry out the wood completely? Any vids that show the process?
