Cut a tree branch approximately 3 1/2 – 4 feet long. The branch should be at least 1 inch in diameter. Use the saw to remove any limbs from the branch. If desired, use the pocketknife to peel the bark from the branch. Hickory, Ash and Oak branches make the best bows.
Cut a triangular notch in each end of the branch. Cut a piece of string 1/2 foot shorter than the branch. Tie the end of the string around one end of the branch, run the string through the notch and pull tight to the other end of the branch. Tie the end of the string around the end. This completes the bow.
Cut smaller straight tree limbs. As on the bow, cut a triangular notch into one end.
Cut a double arrow shape out of cardboard or old roofing shingles. Wrap the arrow around the end of straight limb and tie securely with string. This completes the arrow.
Center the notch of the arrow on the string in the center of the bow. Pull back the string, while holding the arrow, and when you can pull back no farther, let the arrow fly.
This is how we made our bow and arrow, these tips helped us a lot http://howtofixstuff.blogspot.ca/2012/04/how-to-make-bow-and-arrow.html
ReplyDeleteI leave a response whenever I like a article on a blog or
ReplyDeleteif I have something to add to the conversation. Usually
it's a result of the sincerness displayed in the post I looked at. And on this article "How to make a Homemade Bow and Arrow". I was actually excited enough to post a comment ;) I do have 2 questions for you if you do not mind. Is it just me or does it give the impression like some of the comments look like they are coming from brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing at additional online sites, I'd
like to follow everything fresh you have to post.
