According to the previews for "Hows It Made" on the Discovery Channel at 9:30 EST there is a piece on traditional bows.

Thanks for the heads up. My DTV will be on at 9:30 central. I hope it is actually "traditional" bows and not the Discovery channels word for a selfbow.

I heard that the bows featured in that episode were from Rodney Wright archery.

Just watched it.  Pretty quick segment.... 5min at the most.  Makes making a bow look pretty simple, like anybody could do it.  But cool to see on TV too. dino

I watched "How to eat Fried Worms" with my grand-kids the other night. There was a young lady shooting a recurve at targets in one scene. We might be gaining ground with the younger generation!
