A bow made of PVC pipe is an emergency step to give yourself the ability to hunt small game in a survival situation.
For a short-term solution to being able to hunt small game, it is both inexpensive and effective.
Ideally, if you made this bow, it would be just for fun, but in an emergency, to hunt small game for food, this type of bow could ensure you can get your hands on dinner.
Do you know how you could make this type of bow more rugged and durable? If so, let us know below.

I have 3 lol
1 of which shoots harder then my recurve bow
Lame. These arrows spear to be moving in the 100fps range. As a bow hunter I can tell you that a lethal bow is more in the 250-300fps range. It would be almost impossible to kill anything with the bow in this video.

It did say small game, which does not require a lot of force.

Well I don’t count bugs.
I’ll just stick to my actual bows
No dartons?
Nope. The bear is a recurve though, and my oneida is fuckin awesome, accurate and smooth shooting bow, and it’s over 20 years old

You can make it a 40 to 60 lb bow by starting at 1 1/2″ pic and inserting smaller sizes finishing with a 1/4-1/2″ thick fiberglass Rod in the middle,
I’ll hold on to my three piece recurve
Yeah because there’s always PVC pipe laying around in the wilderness….
Was doing this back on high school worth my friend Adam Eubanks
100 fps will take a rabbit or squirrel, or other small game
As well as fish
I have serious doubts about that. Even if someone could actually hit a target that small with this.
