Great video showing a real craftsman at his work. Never shot a Two Tracks bow but I've heard great things. Their wool products look very warm and I'm sure are worth every penny.
You sir can make a really beautiful long bow . I’m not sure all the viewers on UA-cam understand the amount of skill that goes into making a functional work of art . Nice work
Nice craftsmanship, solid design. I like your approach to glue up, very controlled and economical and, no doubt, a lot less clean up afterwards. As long as fitment is spot on, no need for excess adhesive and it is clear that you embrace precision. Again, nice work and good hunting.
Incredible! I believe Chuck is one of the best bowyers out there. And you won't find a more friendly, patient gentleman. Truly a first class individual. Looking forward to saying hi to you Chuck at Kalamazoo! Steve
I still fade out the deer scenes, only my opinion about your craftmanship is: OK, you are using modern hightech tools, but the result is a very beautiful and traditional looking bow. You`re really a master Bowbuilder in this age... and by the way, you have a perfect Viking beard also !!! ;) Thank you and Odins shelter over you! SKOL, Frank
Lovely! The forward handle triangular design is 4000 years old at least and already shown on Egyptian pyramid walls. Looks like a perfect hand shake grip and even in the slowmo it seems dead in the hand! Great bow design!
WoooWeeeee, Man I gotta get me one of these! I'm just afraid if I did I would never pick up my Bear Grizzly or Kodiak again. You sir are a gift to the true archers world. The skill and attention to detail is impeccable. To top off a GREAT bow I love that you use a Flemish Twist for your string. May your arrows always fly true and hit there mark! Thanks for sharing.
Mate, that is a beautifull bow....I make bows in Australia as a hobbie, and experiment wirh different timbers. We have some beautifull native timbers, but it is a bit ofa guess as to how they hold up to the stresses of a bow. But I have designed my constructions, to hopefully minimise limb failures. Great to see your video.
beautiful craftsmanship. I just made a video making a bow with a tablesaw, I don't hold a candle to your craftsmanship. I love how you put the leather on for the grip, I'm struggling with the suede I put on mine, going to try it your way. you have a new subscriber. awesome video brother
If you take a look at my other videos you’ll see me shooting a bunch of deer with that exact bow. It’s 54” and 54lbs and shoots excellent. It’s a Two Tracks Ogemaw if you want to check it out on his website.
I do not know whether there will be any interest or not, but a very large English yew tree has blown over in my customers garden in the UK. I have been given the job of cutting it and disposing of it. So i am going to take a bit of care and slice it up accordingly and try to get some really good staves out of it. The trunks are 18 inches in diameter. There are two trunks as the tree split into two growths as it was growing. They will need drying of course but it is an opportunity to obtain some good wood for future bows. It is going to be a few weeks yet but they will be under the title of "LONGBOW STAVES,ENGLISH YEW". I hope there are people interested and can be a bit patient with me.
David Harrison, you are correct sir. The title is so more people can see the video and find it. In the description it explains that it’s a hybrid flat bow.
Full Quiver Media my apologies , I must have missed that , old age is catching up with me ! ..... still a lovely bow . nice to watch people who truly care about what they are making .
Você é o gênio do arco,como devo fazer para adquirir um arco desde que você fez aí no vídeo moro no Brasil? Um grande abraço,que perfeição seu trabalho 🤝
I'm looking to buy a long bow to keep hopefully forever, is it true that you can buy a bow with a higher draw weight than you can currently manage and just half draw it to build up? Would half drawing it affect accuracy?
I've shot a few animals half drawing the bow. But, it's not ideal. You want to come to full draw and rest your draw hand against your face/head/chin (somewhere solid) to help steady your shot.
can you make a Mongolian style horse bow?? I've been looking for years but I can't find any that quite suit me I like the style you make your bows very fine work
Mark Excell, like I’ve said before, title is so that people can find and enjoy the video. If it was titled, “Hybrid Flat Bow”, it would have 5 views because nobody would find it. That’s why the description explains it.
Trouble is that if anyone was researching how to build a longbow and didn't read the description they may have assumed the video was accurate to the title.
Mark Excell, I understand but if someone wants to build something like this, they are serious about woodcraft and will absolutely understand what they are seeing here. This is not a how-to on building a bow. It is an artful way of showing the craftsmanship that goes into building this type of bow. No discussion of materials, techniques or processes are depicted in this video. It is not useful for that. I shot and edited it to show the craftsmanship behind Two Tracks longbows and used the title to get the video seen by the masses.
There is nothing more beautiful than watching a true craftsman at work. Where can I buy a Chuck Deshler longbow? I'm big into archery using mostly compound bows, but I've been wanting to get my hands on a longbow and do some traditional archery. Every longbow I see is factory made, or made in china, I would love to get my hands on a handmade longbow.
gvanwormer1 That's even better! I just have a preference, that whenever you kill another animal it should be for purpose. I'm glad to hear you used it well!

Agreed!

Awesome video from start to finish! Very well done...both the bow and the video, they work so well together.
Sir, you are a craftsman of the finest sort - - bowyer and video maker. Thanks for posting this. It made a rotten day turn into a fine evening.
Hey Charles I think that’s one of the prettiest Bows I have ever seen great job buddy

Wow this guy is a master craftsman... Simply beautiful..
It would be so cool to build your own bow, whether it’s a compound, or a traditional bow and the hunt with it!
nice video, always a pleasure watching a bow being "born" so to speak. and a fine shot also.
Thank you for sharing your exceptional talent.. I'm a beginner bow builder and found this extremely educational.. awesome bow
Great video. I watch this over and over. Music is great to. Thanks
Beautiful bow, you are a true artist in the art of how making.
Mark Hall, Chuck definitely is an artist!
Beautiful bow and workmanship

Great to see your video.
With fiberglass laminations I don't think that's much of an issue. The wood is mostly decorative.

Wow that's a beauty bow. The fresh venison just tops it off.
very nice work- nice shot in the last scene as well, Congrats!
Beautiful bow and video
Beautiful bow, great workmanship
Wow- what a craftsman and what a beautiful bow
No contest that's a fine custom bow,... it made me want to buy one.
I'm so excited Chuck is building me an Echo very soon.
Really lovely work!
Nice bow! I'm afraid that I may copy your idea of turning a fork into a punch to get even spacing for stitching... clever! Thank you.
What anice looking bow
The coolest video I've watched in a long time.
Beautiful bow indeed...
Great job
That’s a beautiful bow.
That's a real work of art, well done!!
Great work, Chuck!
A work of art.
Great skills thanks for sharing.
Love the video, gorgeous bows sir!
awesome bow, great workmanship....godless you
Wow it's a nice bow
Fantastic job, Nice man.
Very nice video, Chuck.
Wow - awesome. Such a short bow though, it must have been a kid's bow he was making!
If you take a look at my other videos you’ll see me shooting a bunch of deer with that exact bow. It’s 54” and 54lbs and shoots excellent. It’s a Two Tracks Ogemaw if you want to check it out on his website.
It's a reflex/deflex hybrid, similar to what Ron LaClair (1980 longbow world champion) designed when he invented the Shrewbow.
Great looking mate with good cast. Very nice.
I like it good job
Amazing job, today I so around 7 videos of how to make a bow and thise one is the best one. ;D
GREAT VIDEO 👍👍
had a blast watching
Beautiful

you the man brother
Nice bow . In England we would call that a flat bow rather than a longbow . lovely all the same .
David Harrison, you are correct sir. The title is so more people can see the video and find it. In the description it explains that it’s a hybrid flat bow.
Full Quiver Media my apologies , I must have missed that , old age is catching up with me ! ..... still a lovely bow . nice to watch people who truly care about what they are making .
I love the bow, I'm from Indonesia-Papua. Can I buy between countries?
I'm not sure, check out twotracksoutdoors.com and you can contact the bowyer directly.
I was going to buy one, clicked the link and went to the site, sadly everything was out of stock.
Wow that is a good handmade longbow I like it.
Very nice video 👊👊👍👍
Sir... What are the chances of the bow NOT breaking of I use normal plywood for the limbs ( obviously backed by fiberglass)..?
nakul johri, I’m not sure. You can contact the bowyer directly through his website listed above in the description. Thanks
Great job!
perfeito arco eu gostaria de ter um arco desce pra mim muito bom seu arco qual seria o valor de um arco deste. ?
Nice bow & Deer..
GREAT JOB
Hello use glue for laminate for bow like this bow and bows recurve detachable
Have you ever made one of these sweet bow for someone and if so what do you charge for one ? Man that bow is beautiful..
You can check out Chuck's bows at www.twotracksbow.com. He does sell them and it all depends on what you are looking for.

I loved the bow! Seriously one of the best I've seen biult on UA-cam. Where can I get hold of one?
Thank you Rob. Check out my new website www.twotracksoutdoors.com
Would it be to much to add subtitles as what materials you are using and, what you are doing?
NICE WORK. NICE TOOLS. NICE SHOOTING. DON'T YOU JUST HATE DUST THOUGH.
THANK YOU HAVE FUN AND TAKE CARE
GARE
can you make a Mongolian style horse bow?? I've been looking for years but I can't find any that quite suit me I like the style you make your bows very fine work
You can get in touch with Chuck at his website www.twotracksbow.com or contact him through facebook at facebook.com/charlietwotracks
I don't make a horsebow Braydan. I am not sure where to send you even. Try Saluki
منك دططممكططهممنتعالال٦٦هه!#$#@#@@@@@@#٠.٣٢
Awesome looking bow and craftsmanship. too bad not 68 inches and aggressive reflex/deflex
Love the video man, but shouldnt you be wearing a mask or a respirator when sanding fiberglass? correct me if im wrong hehe
just beautiful I'm.13 and I'm.in love with bows I'm from.south Africa
Many thanks. What are the materials you are using ?
(wood, backing...)
Thanks Eric. I used Bacote and Purple Heart in the Riser. Walnut burl veneer and Hard Maple core
Like others have said this is not a longbow (not as per the English definition.) It is, however, an excellent video of making a field bow.

Better title - The art of being a bowyer, because that's what the video is about. Anyway that's just an barebow archers opinion.
Thanks for your input but the video is to promote a bowyer. So, the more views, the better. The title is what gets views so that’s a success.

Two Tracks bows can be order online through www.twotracksbow.com/. They are great bows!
Good video!

Does he still make these bows???
Yes he does. Check out Two Tracks Bows online
Can you tell me the name of the song?
it is beautiful.
Where do you get the fiberglass board?
Please check out twotracksoutdoors.com to email the bowyer directly.
What is the liquid in the bottle you wipe onto your veneers?
That is rubbing alcohol to clean them.
I love those walnut veneers! You do good work!
Jason Rigsby, Chuck does do good work! His bows are works of art that perform as well.

Awesome
great music.
Did you end up getting the stag?
Yes, all three deer in the video were shot and recovered
I see. Did you eat them?
Of course! We eat about 3-4 deer a year as a family and we usually provide a couple to needy families around the area as well.
gvanwormer1 That's even better! I just have a preference, that whenever you kill another animal it should be for purpose. I'm glad to hear you used it well!
