The Ranger bow build

Crows Head was commissioned to design and build bows for an upcoming film project: The Rangers

Step One: Come up with an idea

• This was the hardest step. Sure there are examples of ranger bows, but I wanted to capture something different and relate to the film concepts and background.
• The Ranger film had a cool logo/artwork already designed and I wanted to incorporate that into the bow design somehow.

Step Two: Concept Drawing

• I have never been accused of being a great artist, and my concept drawing is no different.
• I wanted to show the leather wraps and artwork ideas
• 

Step Three: Mockup

• This was the easiest part – just build the bow
• I took pictures along the way
• The pictures tell the story
• 64″ Hickory Longbow
• Pictures of bow prior to wraps and artwork
• 
• Pictures with wraps and artwork – approved by The Ranger crew
• 
• This has been a great project so far and there will be more bows to come for this film in upcoming posts.
