Among the Saami hunters there has been a unique historical method to make bows quickly in the wilderness out of a single spruce branch. With any bit of cordage used as a string an axe is the only tool needed.
In this documentarish video we'll introduce, make and experiment with these makeshift quickbows which were proven surprisingly effective in the hands of masterful Saami archers. The information on these bows is discovered from the diary entries of explorer Carl Linneaus from his remarkable journey to Lapland in early 1700's.
