Best edited Bow Video!
« on: January 11, 2016, 05:14:47 pm »
Hey guys I just wanted to share an amazing video with everyone. I suggested to my favorite YouTuber, Chop with Chris", that he make a bow and he took me up on it and made a nice primitive hickory and arrow. He had never made a bow before but still did a good job (better than I've ever done) and the video is great. Check it out and show him some love! All his other videos are great too.

Yup, nice editing, and I love that big crosscut saw :)
Left a comment too... do I get a smiley face?

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to watch it now. I watched his video on making a carving bench yesterday and another on making a carved bowl. I love his way of going about things. No power tools. I'm in the process now of making some new benches and gathering better tools from flea markets. If he goes about the bow and arrow like he has all the other stuff I've watched then I'm certain this will be a great way to spend my time as I wait for my rice to finish boiling. Thanks again.

That was well done. Best ever bonus footage would be a primitive bow deer harvest. Hey next season I have no doubt he'd do it. I think every beginner should watch this. Especially those of us with adhd like me. His editing keeps it interesting and you get right to the point.
5 stars from me!

Great video. The arrow pass cut into the fade is a little dicey though  :o

Cool video, liked the rubber band idea on the feathers and the arrow sizing blocks. :)

Glad you guys have liked it so far. Definitely check out the rest of his channel. All his videos are great. He never uses power tools and had some incredible tools.
