Building a Red Oak Longbow

Building an English style longbow using hand tools. I used 70" long narrow red oak bow stave for this project. I rounded the belly on the whole bow's length. The bow ended up drawing 45-50lb at 29". On the handle I applied stamped natural leather. On the arrows pass point I glued a piece of cow horn. Unfortunately I had not enough horns to make a full nocks like these, that were applied on English yew longbow in the past. The bow took some set, but I'm really happy with the result. Shoots just great! Get into bow making with my e-books: https://dreamcraftbows.com/en_GB/new Thanks for watching guys! #bowmaking #bowyer #longbow
