Thank you Rayn. Been building selfbow for 3 years now with many ups and downs - but what a journey!
The serving part intrigueds me. Going to try it. Your continued passion for primitive Archery amazes me. Thanks for your wholehearted shearing of your knowledge...

Ryan, thanks for your method for the counter twist for the bottom loop. That's the thing I was struggling with.
Always press like on the first second and never get disappointed. Thank you from Portugal.
Such a great instructional video! I am close to finishing my 1st self made bow from a red oak I cut last year. Currently floor tillering and I need to make a bow string. I’m going to apply your method here. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Best bow string making video I have seen.
Thank you.
Great! Have made some bowstrings till now, but i will definitely make the next one that way. Big Thank you for sharing your knowledge in so many great videos.
Been waiting for another video and this one is gonna help me out.
Awesome video sir. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Ryan, I've seen this serving style on your Primitive Model and I wondered for a while how you did it. Thank you for demonstrating.
my pleasure!
@@huntprimitive9918 can yucca handle a 60lb bow? Rawhide is the toughest?
Great video. I really like twisting the serving in there like that. Enjoying the building videos you’ve been putting out lately.
great tutorial!
Very nice work and you can do There are many ways, and everyone has their own way
Fantastic video! Thank you so much.
Eres el mejor amigo te sigo desde 2014 se lo que digo, felicidades
Nicely Done Sir! Thank You! 🙂
Many years ago I lived on the Indian reservation and while I was there I learned to weave I knew exactly what you were gonna do when you put that string on your leg because that's the exact same way that you build a base for the strings for anything that you might weave on a traditional loom kind of interesting to see how similar both processes are
Thank for all the awesome information!
How about showing how to make a three ply bowstring?
You just earned yourself a subscriber
Good stuff man 😎👍🔥💯🏹
Awesome! Have never seen a string served this way. How does it hold up compared to other serving being that the two main bundles are a part of the serving? Very interested in trying this! Thanks again Ryan for another great and informative video!!!
Great video. Bit hard to focus with the points in the background. Nice drill!
Quick question, how do you tell if a tree is a hard wood? I know next to nothing of trees. Still have the copper bracelet. Love it.
Very informative thank you sir!
Rayn , great video ,do you use a nock. If so how ?
Hey Ryan! ... is there a digital version of the book for sale? Cause as far as I've seen, there's no option for shipping outside the US.
That's what I need! Thanks! 😁😈
What ratio is the beeswax and pine pitch when mixed?
can i use steel wire in my bow
5:24 you twist top string then you flip bottom string up. same time that twisted string unwrap xD but same time bottom string twisting when it go up xD
What is the mixture ratio?
cool
Will you bow strings work for crossbows?
I use dental floss.
I am trying to get stinging nettle down as it's the season.
I have made a small sinew string from varous bird tendons ( ruff grouse, Canada goose, duck pheasant ect.)
B55 stretches way too much.good info.TU
Do an arrowhead speedrun where you try and make an arrowhead as fast as possible and then at the end go kill a deer or something with it to confirm that it can be used in hunting even though it was made as fast as possible but still with the intent to kill your prey.
I’m gonna be building a bow from horizon zero dawn, and it’s confusing, so making my own string will make stringing it a lot easier
Awesome demo!
Yeah the high tech takes away the primative side of things.My recent primative
Arrows are a combination of shoots and Phragmites reed.No scales or spine meters and they all shoot good.Please for the sake of authenticity keep it simple.Apart from that it was Ok

Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will be saved. John 3:16 (share the good news of the gospel around the world!) Have a wonderful day/night, may the LORD bless you all, and farewell!,.,,,,,, .,.,.,.,.,.,..,
