Does anyone know where I can get some pretty detailed plans on how to make a Neolithic bow. I am looking for measurements and details of where in the log the bow should come from.

There are many styles but googling Meare Heath is a good start.
At risk of making generalisations the under bark surface is generally left untouched as the back of the bow.

I think the Horsen Fjord bow is a good example,after a little search it's confusing because it's called both mesolilthic and neolithic on different sites.also this one of my favorite designs.
