      Good luck and if any of these directions should prove to be beyond the beyond useful.... could you refrain from shooting a fish please.  ( I loose so many family members each year... exhausting actually!)


       


      Have a glorious one!

        Oak is not a good material for making a bow. The traditional wood is yew, but ash is also used.

              You could try, but it wouldn't have much spring in it. You could finish up with a smack in the ear from a lump of hardwood.
