Hello friend, how are you? Greetings friend, I have a question for you. Is oak wood good for making bows or what type of wood do you recommend for making a bow?

Thank you I'm gonna be a cowgirl for Halloween and came across this video

Hello, greetings from Colombia, I want to ask you something, my friend Walter, what kind of wood did you use for your bow?

Great instruction. How do you determine the belly if there is a curve in the wood?

Great video! So am I right in saying you cut into the belly side of the bow, and take minimal wood out of the back of the bow and just shave it?

Hail to you cheif for a super instructive and joyful presentation

Mountain Tim from Steel Ball Run got me here

Best video

Excellent!

how thin

I need too get better at throwing it when im on my horse

This could go on to be a penobscot bow for big game 🎯

You’re a young fella! I’m approaching 80. I’ve been using the exact same knife for 50 years. It’s the Field Master, model

It's great to see you doing well, Walter. I found you through your Lasso demonstration.

Hi Walter, I use a bowline knot for the top loop when making a bowstring. No more Flemish twisting the line to make a knot. The bowline hasn’t slipped yet.

You are amazing......you make it all seem so effortless. James

I use the bowline knot for the top loop on my bowstrings. Never a problem!!

Mate here I am thinking I need clamps, tuners, glues, ark of the covenant to make a little bow. Your styles way more aligned with nature anyway, Fantastico monsieur

Hi Walter, Could I use a bowline knot on the upper loop of a bowstring instead of a lariat knot?

What rope did you use???😅

That axe must be sharp.

That’s so rad!

So glad I found your channel, lots of good info

Awesome. How much draw weight would you guess at? I'm making my own bow right now of some oak. So far so good. I kept my tips a little wide because I was worried about the strength of the wood, are wide tips a detriment? The limbs are 1 1/2" and the tips taper down to 1 inch

Спасибо!

Wow! I’ve always been too intimidated to make my own bow but have always been fascinated by them. Now that you’ve shown how easy it can be I’ll be trying my own this weekend! Cheers 🥃

Love your explanations, don't drag on short sweet and cover just what you need to. Great idea we can all take a day and try something like this and see if its our next hobby well don my man.

1:17 i love the “got ‘em!” and big smile on your face!

Man im glad your back. youve been gone 2 years ago and i thought you quit but i really like your videos specifically the bow building ones. Keep on going

And this is what I need. Not a fancy bow making video from which you can learn nothing just full of ads. In this one this very intelligent man is explaining everything. Very educational video. Thank you.

👍👍👍

Я очень хочу знать судьбу этого лука, и насколько он пошел за тетивой. Можно ли использовать его для охоты на мелкую дичь?

Good point about keeping the direction of the breeze flowing away from you so as to not inhale dust. Great tutorial. Thanks!

Yor chanel is simple BUT at the same time one of the best. Thank you!

No ur not beating a knife to cut

Your talk is an inspiration. I needed this. Thanks.

Best darn bow and arrow instruction I've ever gotten. Thanks. New sub.

Классный лук! Удачи деда!

Walter really happy to see you well.thanks for a great video as always. Keep them coming

Glad to see you back Mr. Gigandet! Hope you been good bro! It won't let me watch the vid for some reason? ✌💙

Okay cowboy! What kind of rope works best?

I like it

Use steam to get the feathers back in original condition

Thanks for the tutorial. Was really useful for my issues in 1911

I did this today, it turned out great, I used store bought flax twine instead though. Problem is, it snapped when a friend used it. Ah well, the next one will be better, I did make mine a little longer than yours, maybe 5-6 inches, the snap was on the top/right limb, about two thirds towards the end. I'm thinking, if I can make a few of these, and buy a load or arrow tag arrows, there could be a lot of fun to be had... Especially because PVC pipes are hard to source in the correct density here in the UK, schedule 50 equivalents are hard to come by, that would be my first choice for durability. In case you're interested, I used a silky pruning saw and a cold steel bushman, I feel confident I could do the whole build with my Kukri in future though, less to carry.

I love it
