Bow Making Introduction
2 Day Course
This is a workshop based 2 Day Course,
Although certain elements of it can take place outside,
The course starts at 9,00 am and finishes 5,00 pm on course days, The course fee covers transport to and from local Train Station and Airport on day of commencement and finish day, And transport to and from your B&B if required, although the B&B fee is not covered, Alternatively you could bring a small tent and camp out in a secluded area near us, We can point you in the right direction,
Also included in course fee is tea, coffee, biscuits etc
This Bow Making Course is suitable for anyone, You do not have to have any previous experience,
You will be making a traditional style Long Bow from one of our hand selected seasoned blanks in hardwood,
Normal size is 6ft approx although smaller lighter poundage bows may be recommended for younger or slightly shorter people,
You will be using only basic handtools and will be taking home a finished bow right through to lacquering, waxing, scorching or dyeing, the finishes are entirely your decision, Perhaps a nice leather handle would be your choice,
Again with this course we will provide you with a bow cover as it wouldn't be a great idea to run about the local train station or airport with an uncovered Long Bow,
If you would like we can supply extra blank staves at an additional cost for you to take home,
And we are always at the end of the phone or email for queries of past course participants,
These courses are very restricted in numbers, due to the intensive one on one guidance,
The available dates for this course for you to join in with a small number of other clients are on our dates page, but if there are a couple of you together email your preferred dates, preferably mid-week, Individual tuition is available in extreme cases but course fees may change slightly,
