Has anybody on here ever done this? I am looking into doing it and I was hoping to get some pointers or information resources.

There are a lot of good resources out for building traditional bows, Binghams in Utah sells kits and blueprints.  If you want an all wood bow, Rudderbows in Washington state has everything you need.  I have made several and it is a lot of fun, all that is really needed is basic woodworking skills and some creativity.  Hope you enjoy it as much as I have. :archery:

The basic woodworking skills shouldn't be a problem. I worked in a wood shop for the last 2 years.

Thanks for the tips
