The smallest bow I build that is "functional" is 36" tip-tip. Shoots great and is perfect for the little guys. This is not a toy and will put a hole in your hide if the child is not properly supervised.

Now that's deadly! Killed any flies with it yet? I think a broke off tooth pick will be more deadly than a cotton swab. Be really neat to break off a tooth pick and use some small feathers as fletching.

When you kill a fly post a pic!    :archer:

I sometimes make mini bows out of firewood when I don't have the time or energy to build a big one. I have a 12 inch ERC one that puts holes in the wall with tempered bamboo skewer arrows.
