Great videos and awesome website. I found it today and checked it out. I can sense a piece of red oak in my near future that I will attempt to craft/force into a bow. I fired you an email from the email addy on your website. Thanks for the help and inspiration.

Forgot, do you hunt at all or just build the bows for the fun of building. I am a hunter, and Id like to make one for hunting deer. I did hear you in the vid mention 53# which is plenty. If I buy a thin lamination of hickory on your red oak bow, that will raise draw weight a bit???

@1navynuke I just make bows for the fun of it. I've wanted to go bow hunting for the last couple of years. I just don't have the time to put in the practice necessary to get good enough to hunt with a bow. Other people have hunted with my bows, though.
Yes, a hickory backing will add weight to your red oak bow, but you should keep the hickory really thin or it will overpower the red oak.

1:11 Poor cat that you hit. You should put it out of its misery. :D haha. j/k.
Oh, and cool. Got to see the lothlorien bow being shot. Also, Grace, what a difference in demeanor in this video. :D haha. Quite the joker.

Ah! That isn't a hinge on the top limb at :21 is it? it scared me half to death. I recently had a bow explode :(

@EdvvardCash Thanks for your concern, but it's quite safe. It's a reflex/deflex bow, so it's supposed to bend like that. Besides, it's fiberglass, so it would take a lot to make it explode.
