DIY Board Bow for my Granddaughter
My 18 month old granddaughter is attached to my hip(I love it to no end). Whatever Papa is doing, Brae has to be doing. We started watching YouTube deer hunting videos when she was about a year old. Now anytime she sees a deer, no matter where we are, she says “Bowww!” Her version of POW. Decided I would try to make her first bow out of an oak board. I took the straightest grain oak board I had and ripped it 1 1/4” wide. Cut it 36” long and cut a 6” pc for the handle. It’s very cold right now in NH, so I brought it inside to glue it up. My little helper wanted to be part of it, so she helped with the tape measure. LOL. She has been a blessing in our lives. She has given me the motivation to get healthier so I can be here for her as long as possible. I am the only male role model in her life, so I want to be the best I can for her and my family. Tomorrow I will back the bow with some fiberglass tape. I will post as I go. Thanks for looking.
