Title: Favorite Youtube (or other) Bowmaking Videos
Post by: John Scifres on January 22, 2017, 02:16:22 pm

I love youtube and there are a lot of bowmaking vids, some good, a couple great but most (like mine) are very amateurish. Making videos is hard but I want to get better. Let me know which ones you like and why.

Depends what sort of bow you want to make.
I've done an Yew ELB andYew Warbow each with a series of vids on Youtube, tho' I say it myself, I've not seen better for those styles of bow :-[.
The ELB includes some detail on horn nocks and arrow plates too.

I like the Rattlestick DVD by Gary Davis.

 It is not my favourite style of bow, but I like the video:
