This man is doing everything the right way, no high powered rifle, no tree stand or food plots, actually out hunting and walking, and he uses the animals that he kills too! 2 thumbs up!!👍👍
Thanks for all of your hunting videos. I don't have the opportunity to do it anymore where I live now, but I am using your videos to teach my 5 and 7 year old daughters about where our food comes from.
So fantastic I’m from Germany and I love your videos .I’m really sad because in Germany nobody can hunt with bow but with a gun .....but in Italy we have got a house and there I’m hunting with bow and arrow
@@xans3828 - I worked in Germany and then Austria. I got my jagdschein in Heidelberg and was very fortunate to hunt in Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, and England (for muntjac).
Ryan, this whole series of videos has been awesome. I want to ask you a question about your shooting style. I notice you drop your bow down and to your left after you loose. Since you cant your bow, despite pulling to the left, it seem that doing this might pull the bow away from the arrow, eliminating deflection/spine, as it's released, sort of like khatra in Turkish archery? Probably a dumb observation, really enjoy your work.
Watching you thin out the stave made me appreciate your skill and patience. I figure the reason you make it look easy is because you spent thousands of hours practicing. On the other hand you might have picked it up overnight so there's that.
Nice shooting I have hunted with bows rifles and dogs but nowadays I love hunting with a slingshot like a bow it's all about getting in range of the animal you hunting love the videos you make you have a very good channel with very good information
Looks like a piece of cake, but I've tried it with stone tools and didn't got an nice bow like you, not nearly, but I keep trying, you're videos are very motivating! Thanks, great content, keep on!
Your Build and hunt videos are probably the best thing on youtube. Also beats the crap out of anything on the outdoor channels on T.V. P.S. would love to see some more small game videos.
Enjoy watching your hunts Ryan. You put out some awesome content. And build some nice tools! I love the neck knife I got from you, it's very well made!
@@huntprimitive9918 Facebook took done an listing I placed for selling a longbow, I said it's just a stick and a string but they still nicked it for being a "weapon."
@@jasonhw00 yeah I cannot promote ads on facebook... I am permanently red flagged because I too sell "weapons".. really sad the soft world we are surrounded by
that's awesome, I definitely would like to give that a go, I used to make lots of bows and arrows from different types of cane or as a youngster so I think this has rekindled that interest and I love to hunt. very inspiring, thank you.
I definitely agree with you, I always hope to educate and sway a few folks onto our side of the fence. There are soooo many people that have no exposure to hunting and are taught that it is bad. Every single one of those that I can positively influence is a big win in my book.
@Wet Mustard I honestly don't personally know a single person that hunts purely for fun and don't make use of the animals... That's pretty much the whole point. "Hunting for fun" seems to be more a concept built by the anti-hunting community to make hunters seem like horrible people.
@@huntprimitive9918 I'm guessing they're thinking of big game hunters who pay big tag costs to hunt say, a Lion, and don't eat it, but proudly display its skin, even though they were taken to within mere inches of it, and handed a high powered rifle. I'd also argue that's about as indicative of regular hunters as boxing is of a regular argument. I'd say 95-98% of hunters hunt for meat/the joy of being useful, in touch with nature and in touch with the technology.
That's an awesome build and primitive hunt video. QQ, how long did you have to fire dry that bow stave, and what would you say is the draw weight of the finished bow?
Hey, you built that bow a whole lot faster than the last time I saw you build that bow. Im guessing you got better with practice, eh? Bright yellow T-shirt. Bright white bow. Nice still hunt even with it. Good job.
6th comment yayyy you inspire me to start making bows but I don't have the materials I have some native American blood that's why but I will keep trying thank you
Great video. Who need these stupid elaborate hides or state of the art camo ? You don't because you have got real hunting skills. You remind me of when I was a boy hunting rabbits with every day clothes and a crappy air gun , I would stalk so close I couldn't miss. Keep up the good work.
thanks very much. That's the number 1 reason I will never be on TV..lol... I tell folks they do not need the stuff that sponsors and commercials spend a lot of money to convince folks they need to be successful.
Great Video Man, keep it up, but you know what would be a great idea for a video? I would love to see a video on making and using hog and deer calls. If you called in a hog with a homemade call, that would be WILD! Keep up the great vids man, I always love watching
This was absolutely fascinating. How big are the biggest boars? Do the charge you after they get hit like the ones in Texas do? Besides your skinning knife what other protection do you have? Do you carry a lance/spear?
Ryan, you have the weirdest form I've ever seen. You also have the longest arrows I've ever seen. Yet you beat the middle out of that target bag. I'm on my way out to the backyard. I'm going to build a fire and burn the archery rule book. I'll take my advice from you from now on. Thanks for a great video.
Thanks very much. That is a big part of what our big data collection project is about. We are taking some pretty small points that penetrate really well and bringing animals down really fast with them. Since stone inherently has more resistance than steel, the threshold for penetration is a bit different between stone and steel
i apologize, my question wasn't stated very well, i was referring to the tips of the bows and the performance of short bows with wide limb tips as opposed to narrow limb tips. you already have awesome demonstrations of the raw power of the ill named "bird points" on so many game, i wish i was out hunting but the marine corps keeps telling me that i have stuff to do haha
@@noblegreen2692 oh, no prob, I guess my mind always runs straight to projectiles. Narrow tips will add a tad more speed, but not really a whole lot. I went with these wider tips only because I was building it with the inspiration of the south eastern style of bows that we often shown having wider tips and diamond nocks, both of which are ideal for stone age builds.
Ryan, There are thousands and thousands of wild hog running over S Florida and Georgia. Do you think there are more game rich environments now than were available to primitive man?
Near the advertise that poof an odor eliminator. I wonder how that would work in masking our scent while hunting out in the bush and then using like I like a fox urine or skunk urine for to cover our scent on our feet I don't know if you tried to poop or not but it might work out pretty good, I do not know what your thoughts are on that but I think it would be worth a try
AMAZING, loved the video!!!! Where can I see the long video on how to make the bow. Do you also have a video on how to make arrows? The arrow you showed looked like it was made of thin cane. Is it?
yes, it is made of cane. Thanks much. I have both a stone age arrow build, and a more modern tools primitive arrow build. Both can be searched for on my channel. The full length version of this build should be linked down in the description.
Can you please for the love of God make a hunting video where you wear Daisy Duke denim shorts and are shirtless wearing a cowboy hat and a pair of good ol cowboy boots? It would be pretty epic! Like Goku vs Allah Akbar!!!! epic!
This man is doing everything the right way, no high powered rifle, no tree stand or food plots, actually out hunting and walking, and he uses the animals that he kills too! 2 thumbs up!!👍👍
Awesome stuff man you inspired me to make my first self bow that i finished the other day and it pulls at 36lbs
excellent, glad to hear it. You're definitely addicted now!

I swear you must be half ninja and half ghost to get the shots you get. i never get hogs that close in the daytime!!!!
Hell yeah I've been waiting for this video since the ig post!!! U introduced me to the primitive world and now I can't leave it!
excellent, thanks very much! The bow is Hickory and the full build is uploading currently, but it's a long one!
@@huntprimitive9918 thanks I will wait for the video:)!
@Anthony Maurice yup absolutely
Dude you're the woodland native we all want to be.
Yes he is.
Awesome work constructing the bow with primitive tools and taking an animal with it!! Hat's off to you!
Nice stuff we need people like you
Great video and pig hunt keep up the great job

So fantastic I’m from Germany and I love your videos .I’m really sad because in Germany nobody can hunt with bow but with a gun .....but in Italy we have got a house and there I’m hunting with bow and arrow

This impressed the heck outta me!

Love the recurve bow you made the vintage one
Nice shot! Thanks for the post.....Great looking arrow nice work. Your arrow heads are amazing.
thank you very much
I've learned a lot from watching your videos. Very informative and real raw data. Thanks for sharing.
It's crazy that this video will probably be demonitized. People have been doing this for millennia

In the olden days instead of getting demonetized some guy would hit you over the head with a rock and take your belongings if you said a no no word
@DrMossydog It's not?
That’s what I call proper hunting .

What a great hunt. Nice shot.
thanks very much James
Great video!!! Excellent build and great hunt!!!
thanks very much!
You shouldn't have to justify killing animals for food, nobody gets angry when someone cuts down a few trees to grow crops.

great shot! hope you got another one, no such thing as too much bacon or sausage in the freezer.
What would you say was the draw weight on the bow?
Sebastian Nava I believe, in the longer version of the bow build, which is a separate video, he says the draw weight is about 55lbs at 22inch draw.
Great video
Great Video Man, keep it up, but you know what would be a great idea for a video? I would love to see a video on making and using hog and deer calls. If you called in a hog with a homemade call, that would be WILD! Keep up the great vids man, I always love watching
Ive Been waiting for one of these vidros
I love your canal 👍
That's really pretty awesome! Should have a lot more views, not much interest in hunting these days I guess.I'm fascinated by the primitive archery.
thank you very much
I really like the way you hunt, sneak up really close and take the shot. That was probably, what, 10 yards?
Nice hunting 👍
What was the bowstring made from?
Awesome!
thanks for tuning in!
Wish I could get into this type of hunting but I don't have the time or money but thanks for keeping my mind sharped
Keep up the great work love the videos
The Huntsman he literally used stones and antler you find for free🤣
That is true however I don't have the time to create bows and hunt with them I have very little time to hunt in the first place
@@thehuntsman8542 thanks very much for following along with us though!
@@huntprimitive9918 much love from us up here in Wisconsin love your videos never change who you are just be you

I love this
thanks very much
I am giving up minecraft for this
I'm curious as to what wood he used. Not too many great bow woods in south florida and that thing turned out awesome.
thanks. It is Hickory

Was that a pignut hickory?
Hahaha
yup, most certainly was!
Do u have video, how to seek plants in the wild that u can eat?
Amazing
Hi good video
thanks much
You are welcome
More Selfbow videos!!!
Can you shoot modern graphite, or carbon fiber, arrows with such bows?
By the way this video is awesome
thank you very much
Ryan, There are thousands and thousands of wild hog running over S Florida and Georgia. Do you think there are more game rich environments now than were available to primitive man?
I like the bow build, why is it unlisted? Also does the finish have to be bear grease or can I use something like uncured bacon grease?
And how did u made the arrow, or did u buy it?
Can you do a how to on how to make a bow out of osage?? I've tried, but can't seem to figure it out, Nice Video!!
Check out clay hayes channel. Hes actualy a frind of ryans. Does some fantastic bow builds!
It's right , you don't need a stone point , I made a bow and som arrows once , it's was able to penetrate an old wooden dor 1.5 cm from 20 m shot
Near the advertise that poof an odor eliminator.

What wood is that bow? And was it green when you hunted with it or how long was it seasoned for?
Another awesome video. I really enjoy your hog hunting videos. What draw weight would you guess that bow at ?
Doesn't need that big of a draw weight too for the bow, as the arrowhead is very sharp and you never shoot from far away too
Which Wood is good for building Bows?
this one is hickory, but osage, hickory, elm, hophornbeam just to name a few of the better ones
@@huntprimitive9918 thanks a lot. I' try that.

Could you make a video of hunting and hunting techniques???
What type of wood should be used please
have you tried building a pvc bow?
@HuntPrimitive what wood die you use?
Whats the pull weight on that bad boy?
Can you please for the love of God make a hunting video where you wear Daisy Duke denim shorts and are shirtless wearing a cowboy hat and a pair of good ol cowboy boots? It would be pretty epic! Like Goku vs Allah Akbar!!!! epic!
What was the draw length and draw weight?
Any bow backing ?
what wolden use to make the bows? what type to tree?
this bow is hickory. Most of my other bows are Osage
Why is that 2 hour bow video not showing up on my subs list for new videos even though it’s on this same channel?
What do you use as a psyco trigger? looks like your index finger against your lip, just curious. Maybe you don't shoot like that though?
I have a complete floating anchor and pull through the shot. It's just a completely organic style of shooting that I have been doing my whole life.
