- in this video I try to create the highest power bow I can make with PVC pipe and I got what I was looking for and so much more. this bow draws at an INSANE 100# AT 12 INCHES AND A TERRIFYING 240# AT 28 INCHES I can only manage to draw it up to the 100lb range which takes just about everything I have. I can only shoot this a few times before it has completely drained me and my fingers feel like they are going to break. this is a monstrosity and I am going to have to make some special arrows just to make it shoot straight. this monster of a bow is one crazy thing check out the video to see what I mean.

This is a sweet little war bow! I love the Egyptian decurved style tips!
I highly suggest you try a 100# at 32" PVC bow. It is about the sweet spot when it comes to heavy weight and efficiency in a war bow weight PVC bow.
Keep up the awesome work!
@@BackyardBowyer That seems like something far more reasonable to draw than this monster bow! I may have to make one do you have a video with the recipe on your channel? 😁 I would love to try and make a 100# long draw bow this one was an experiment to see what kind of craziness I could come up with and I was astounded that it was so hard to draw!
@@hookersbladesforge I have a video on making a Turkish-style 105# at 28" bow. That bow, made at 2" longer of a pipe than used in the video, would make a bow that could be reasonably drawn at 28" at around 80-90#'s and yet can reach a full 100# at its full 30" draw.
@@BackyardBowyer awesome! I might have to give it a shot! If I make one I'll have to do a video on how it turns out so you can see how it turns out!
Okay, so I tried to make this and it got nowhere near 200#s. I used a 2' 1/4"Dia fiberglass rod, 3' 1"Dia pvc, and a vice. The pvc didn't flatten all the way. I might need to use a paint can to curve the tips because I now notice the difference in width and the recurves i have on it right now seem ineffective at increasing draw weight
@@arandomlemon6707 it's really tricky to get the tips just right for sure and the curvature that you put into it is a big factor from what I've noticed. If your struggling to figure out how to get some more power to them or how to do things in a more in depth way I would recommend checking out the backyard Bowyer channel he is the one that inspired me to make these cause of how good he is at making so many varieties
@@hookersbladesforge thanks, i just realized that I'm only missing the reflex on the tips after double checking
@@arandomlemon6707 awesome I hope your build goes GREAT👍
@@hookersbladesforgethanks 👍
@@arandomlemon6707 any time!
1st and last thing the string is tied the opposite way. Which make the bow disgraceful.
Have you ever made a bow? You don't seem to know what your talking about. If you tie the bow string the opposite direction it wouldn't allow the string to hold under tension. It would pop off the moment you went to draw it. Judging by your profile picture I'm just going to assume you are making a poor attempt at trolling and move on.
