Bow Making

Bow Making

Roger has always been interested in making things and understanding how they work. When he embarked on making his first bow, all of my bow building knowledge was gleaned from you tube videos, reading blogs and from a Bingham Projects DVD which was kindly lent to him by a friend. There were one or two hiccups along the way but I ended up with what has turned out to be a lovely shooting American Flatbow which was followed by a couple of takedown recurves.

In the Summer of 2018 Rogers bow making took a big step forward when he purchased the bow forms and designs of Blackbrook Bows from Andy Soars and since then his passion for making bows has continued to grow. Not only making bows from the Blackbrook range but also developing his own "Honey Badger" hybrid bow, English longbows and primtive flatbows.
