Here naturalist John Rhyder tells us about the thinking processes behind the design of longbows and flatbows used by different cultures and communities throughout history. John also shows us how to work the tillering jig to check a bow is fit for purpose.

Nice video, very well commented. Good to see some bows with character. Just shows they don't have to perfect to shoot well…
