Dean Torges "Hunting the Bamboo Backed Bow" is a very good video. His book"Hunting the Osage Bow" is another good resource.

Steve Stratton's DVD, "Making the Laminate English Warbow" is excellent. Besides making a warbow, it has lots of very good general info on wood selection, layout, tillering, etc. Dean Torges DVD is also excellent. It's a bit more advanced, and it seems that every time I watch it, I pick up something new.

Making a wood bow, by Mark Keller is good also.

The only video I have is called "full circle" Its got bow making, cane arrow making, flintknapping, buckskining and primitive deer hunting. Its kind of long but very interesting and has some humorous parts also. I'd recomend it to anyone interested in our craft.

I recently purchased "full circle"as well and it has a very good section on sinew backed bows.

The only ones I have are the Torges one and Full Circle. Both have a bunch of info.
