No offence, but I've made better bows in my childhood years (including a smaller longbow that could shoot 50-60 meters !). Your's is too rough and rigid looking. I personally always tried to pick branches that had smooth bark and were as flexible as possible.
Zeewolfe is right: lose the music. Never mind that it's not everyone's taste (which is different); it's a huge distraction from your otherwise very interesting and useful topic.
no offence to you dude but that is officially the worst bow i have ever seen in my live...... i made that kinda bows when i was five, but i guess we all have to start somewhere....... well good luck with your bow making carreer and next time post a video of a actual bow not a piece of wood with a damn fishing string in between.... sorry but it really sucks!!
Honestly what does everybody expect from a 3 minute youtube video. The process to make a bow is long and tedious, the fastest i've ever seen a fully functioning long bow made was about a week. Just google how to make homemade longbows and you'll find 1000's of step by step videos and movies.
this stick sucks, I don't call it a bow, because it isn't!
tip: use a tree with NO branches ( 2 meters long and 10cm thick )
then make a handle of lether, 5 cm under the middle, then start to cut above jour handle, and under jour hande.. make some string nocks and, your perfect bow is finisht..
Can you realy call this THINGY a bow?! I bet it throws the arrow like 2ft far. Its a shame how i was hoping to see a real tutorial for making a BOW and i keep seeing bullshit tutorials for Toys...i remember making this kind of "bow" when i was 8.
i thought by looking on youtube i might find some better ideas than mine. well no. that was the most crappiest bow I have ever seen. You used a brench that is way too stiff for bows. you want to use willow for your bow, that is the best wood for non-professional bows. and damn, fishing line? right. by the way, a bow should be stretchable from your straight left arm to your eye, and not about the length of a pen.
uuhm. i do not have a fishing line with me all the time. and willow can be found in a lot of woods. And what would you do with a bow that shoots 3 meters? Btw, my bow is obviously better than this one, and I made it in the backyard with only a rope, and a willow brAnch. xD
@myoxfermani dude willow sucks for bow wood. it is too soft and break easily... and from what you think is good wood to make a bow, you literally do not know the first thing about making bows. and you can make a bowstring from fishing line.. but you need more than one strand, and you need to wax it and braid it. stop acting like your a bow expert
I must have made a hundred of those little bows when I was young.
Keep being young as long as you can and have fun with this stuff as long as it pleases you. Don't listen to those who criticize ... only those who cheerfully advise.
I would love to go out "hunting" with you, if you could help me make one of those for me! :-)
someone has probably posted this before, but when you draw a bow, the staff should flex, or bend, however you want to say it.. the bowstring shouldn't stretch.. you are better off just buying a bow at a store you can get a beginners one for like 40 dollars
Why not get port orford shafts from Quicks archery stores and worry about making just the BOW yourself, then at least you will have one reliable feature to allow you to judge the effectiveness of the bow you have made.
That's an insult to boyscouts (not that I'd care, I'm an Englishman)!
I can't believe in the middle of the movie you said to bend the bow and I'm thinking NO DON'T, the bow is meant to be STRAIGHT (since you aren't making a recurve) and then you bend it when stringing, please note that next time you do this.
well i liked it fuck these other bitches it was kinda like a very rough draft of what mine is gonna be but good job better than the rest of the how to make a bow vids on here.
fail... one its called a bow stave...two if you use fishing line for any kind of decent bow youll cut your fingers pulling it....three learn how to actually make a bow before posting shit like this...you give real bowyers a bad name by claiming to know what your talking about.
@Madlibber WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU CALL A ENGLISH LONGBOW RETARD A STICK AND STRING FUCKING DIP SHIT WOW YOU ARE REALLY REALLY DUMB YOU SAYING BOLLOCKS AND ALL I FIGURED YOU WOULD KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT BOWS BUT YOU DONT YOUR RETARDED
Why does he have so many tools and a massive workshop when its quite clear that the only things needed to undertake this project are a collection of sharpened spoons and an overwelming desire to embarrass our obviously failing race.
dude this is how you make a DECENT bow. take a wood staff about 4 to 5 feet long and about 3-4in in diameter. then split it in half. the side with the bark use a knife or axe to take it off. then use an axe to thin it out. then use a sander to sand it nice n smooth. you can add other details from there
okeej this is NOT the way to make a bow this way you will never get it over 20 pounts and an archer will break it in 2 when he fully draws it a real bow is made from a large tree log rather than yust a stick
string should be harder and it shouldn't be ANY elastic! the bow should be bending and there comes the power of the bow not from the string! SO UR VID SUCKS!
oo well i made this really cool bow in like 10mins the bow is made out of pvc pipe 1/2 inch pipe it bends good and i can shoot a real arrow like 80 yards or more... i used some boot string for the string of the bow...
sorry dude, not a bow, you are using the stretch in the fishing line, a bows strenght comes from the wood, not the string, this video was a waste of my time!!!
