Horse Bow Inspired PVC Recurve

[Cedarsavage]

I’ve watched a bunch of pvc bow videos, they look cool and I’m too cheap too buy a horsebow. This would be a fun project for guys that have little kids or grandkids. I made it from 1” pvc, and it turned out 54@27. I think I’d try ¾” for a young shooter. You could have a youth bow for a few bucks and a little elbow grease. Check out the build video.

Cool. Might be a project to add to the post-hunting season list.

Yeah it's not too big of a time commitment.

I have a 30lb one I got cheap and love it, its my muck about bow for just messing around, or letting new folk try as it's more forgiving to accidental dry fires unlike my laminated recurve

That's a really nice looking one. I like the pcord handle.

As I say, I got it cheap including a fake leather grip.
I saw a vid on paracord string silencers and I do love a paracord wrap so just went with it and really like how its turned out.
