I need too get better at throwing it when im on my horse

This could go on to be a penobscot bow for big game 🎯

I’ve lived in the woods for most of my life people call me The Woods Roamer. I’m approaching 80;; My nearest neighbor is 4 miles away. I’m an ethnobotanist Hunter. Trapper Tracker Grumpy old man

You’re a young fella! I’m approaching 80. I’ve been using the exact same knife for 50 years. It’s the Field Master, model

A little bow saw or even a Swiss Army knife saw would be much better than your little axe.

It's great to see you doing well, Walter. I found you through your Lasso demonstration.

Hi Walter, I use a bowline knot for the top loop when making a bowstring. No more Flemish twisting the line to make a knot. The bowline hasn’t slipped yet.

You are amazing......you make it all seem so effortless. James

I use the bowline knot for the top loop on my bowstrings. Never a problem!!

Mate here I am thinking I need clamps, tuners, glues, ark of the covenant to make a little bow. Your styles way more aligned with nature anyway, Fantastico monsieur

Hi Walter, Could I use a bowline knot on the upper loop of a bowstring instead of a lariat knot?

What rope did you use???😅

That axe must be sharp.

That’s so rad!

So glad I found your channel, lots of good info

Awesome. How much draw weight would you guess at? I'm making my own bow right now of some oak. So far so good. I kept my tips a little wide because I was worried about the strength of the wood, are wide tips a detriment? The limbs are 1 1/2" and the tips taper down to 1 inch

Спасибо!

Wow! I’ve always been too intimidated to make my own bow but have always been fascinated by them. Now that you’ve shown how easy it can be I’ll be trying my own this weekend! Cheers 🥃

Love your explanations, don't drag on short sweet and cover just what you need to. Great idea we can all take a day and try something like this and see if its our next hobby well don my man.

1:17 i love the “got ‘em!” and big smile on your face!

Man im glad your back. youve been gone 2 years ago and i thought you quit but i really like your videos specifically the bow building ones. Keep on going

And this is what I need. Not a fancy bow making video from which you can learn nothing just full of ads. In this one this very intelligent man is explaining everything. Very educational video. Thank you.

👍👍👍

Я очень хочу знать судьбу этого лука, и насколько он пошел за тетивой. Можно ли использовать его для охоты на мелкую дичь?

Good point about keeping the direction of the breeze flowing away from you so as to not inhale dust. Great tutorial. Thanks!

Yor chanel is simple BUT at the same time one of the best. Thank you!

No ur not beating a knife to cut

Your talk is an inspiration. I needed this. Thanks.

Best darn bow and arrow instruction I've ever gotten. Thanks. New sub.

Классный лук! Удачи деда!

Walter really happy to see you well.thanks for a great video as always. Keep them coming

Glad to see you back Mr. Gigandet! Hope you been good bro! It won't let me watch the vid for some reason? ✌💙

Okay cowboy! What kind of rope works best?

I like it

Use steam to get the feathers back in original condition

Thanks for the tutorial. Was really useful for my issues in 1911

I did this today, it turned out great, I used store bought flax twine instead though. Problem is, it snapped when a friend used it. Ah well, the next one will be better, I did make mine a little longer than yours, maybe 5-6 inches, the snap was on the top/right limb, about two thirds towards the end. I'm thinking, if I can make a few of these, and buy a load or arrow tag arrows, there could be a lot of fun to be had... Especially because PVC pipes are hard to source in the correct density here in the UK, schedule 50 equivalents are hard to come by, that would be my first choice for durability. In case you're interested, I used a silky pruning saw and a cold steel bushman, I feel confident I could do the whole build with my Kukri in future though, less to carry.

I love it

Had the bow set up at a pro shop. It performed just fine kzbin.infoUgkxQEKUoxLWwayEDZR0NKB-5limn4MBU-2L . And I would say this is a good starting now that I could pass down to my son when he is older.But the package was missing the release and a nock was missing from one arrow.Dealing with customer support was terrible. They suggested I buy a new release rather than correct their own quality control issue because it’s to expensive for the. to ship it out from China.Update: manufacturer got back to me and resolved the issue. I retract the above statement.

the "angle of Holm"

From UK - Thank you Walter, I have some ash & beech staves and intend to start bow making, your videos are very helpful - Blessings :)

You mentioned that the bark needs to ret for 3-4 days. Are you sure that's correct? The bark I harvested this year still isn't ready after almost 2 weeks.

Can I use oak, pine, or cypress? If yes, then which one is best?

when you how did you wrap it I try to just go around a feather a bunch of times and when it reached the end of the string what then it just comes off how to tie it I dont understand

I really miss your videos. Your like the dad/gramps along of kids/men/women never had you can take treasure with you when you pass .your knowledge is precious please share

I cant belive how good it is for its size! I never thought bow that small could be a good bow!

Спасибо за тонкости оснащения стрелы пером, очень доходчиво и интересно.

Молодец, хороший мастер, сразу видно, что это не первый лук, который он изготовил. Даже захотелось повторить. Привет с остова Сахалин!

Great for stealth kills in real life, Outposts.

Human trash in the woods is a survivalist's grocery store hehehe.
