A wooden bow and its arrow projectiles is the sniper system of the primitive world. Its lethal use is historically linked to the user’s stealth, skill and physical prowess. With this tool, early civilizations acquired the means of obtaining food and defending their small communities from enemies and predators — both from a more comfortable distance.
Constructing a bow capable of this feat is no easy task. The student must understand which materials in nature are best to use and also gain an understanding of physics and the fabrication process. The result is a powerful and accurate hunting bow. Students will identify and harvest a tree for use in their bow stave. Be aware: this class is certain to fill fast. This is a full, two-day session and breakfast is included. B.Y.O.T. (Bring your own tent).
