Lets make a Traditional Longbow.
Make a longbow like this and your journey into archery will be so much richer.
Shooting a bow is one thing, but to make it and then shoot it is the perfect ending to any day.
During this video I will show you exactly how to do it.
If you need to get some wood like what I used during the video here is the place I get it from. exotichardwoodsukltd.com
or book on a course with me at www.will-lord.co.uk

My 8 year old son prefers watching your videos to any children's shows like cartoons. He is outside now working on making some chord. Cheers!

My friend makes bows, he uses axes, and all kinds of wood, my favorite is his native American Osage orange bows, he knows the lbs of pressure of pull back just by feeling the wood before he strings them up, and can hit bottle caps 50 foot away with them.

So good to tune in to your channel again Will. It has been a while. I've been "under the pump", but I'm good to go again, thank goodness. Excellent up-load as ever was man. Very cool indeed.

I have to think about my priorities now. I have been an archaeologist for almost 30 years, the last 15 as a researcher and have almost completely forgotten why I started. Time to get back to flint knapping.

A few years ago we had a big yew tree fall in one of our sheep fields, so I had a go at making a long bow for myself I spent around 2 months carefully cutting and carving this lovely piece of yew I used the scraping method with a sharp blade and made a really nice long bow, I was so happy with myself if looked amazing, I even made the bow string same as you did, but when I was putting the string on my bow the bottom end snapped, I was so so gutted 😭😭

Its fascinating to me to think that the Bow was built in so many ways all over the world. It was discovered in so many countries at different times and has fed and protected us ever since. Amazing, I put it up there with the Wheel!
