Bow Making Course – NCFE Level 3 Accredited

Bow Making Course.

Step back in time and connect with an ancient skill that has stood the test of generations. Our Bow Making Course offers you the chance to craft your very own bow, learning techniques that our ancestors relied upon for hunting, survival, and self-reliance. This hands on course is designed to immerse you in the rewarding process of transforming a simple piece of wood into a fully functioning bow, while deepening your understanding of natural materials and traditional craftsmanship.

Over the course of the weekend, you will be guided by experienced instructors who will share their expertise, ensuring you learn every stage of the bow-making process. From selecting the right wood, shaping and tillering the bow, to crafting a bowstring and refining the finishing touches, you will develop both practical skills and a sense of connection to the woodland environment. At the end of the course, you will leave not only with a bow crafted by your own hands but also with the knowledge and confidence to continue developing your skills at home.

This Bow Making Course is accredited by NCFE at Level 3 standard, giving you a recognised certification that reflects both the quality of training and the depth of skill you will achieve. It is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with prior bushcraft experience. We keep group sizes small to ensure plenty of one-to-one tuition, allowing you to work at your own pace and truly enjoy the creative process. All tools and materials are provided, and our friendly team will be on hand to support you throughout.

By the close of the course, you will have created more than just a bow, you will have built a tangible link to a timeless tradition and gained a deeper appreciation of the skills that sustained our ancestors.
