This is a new project I am starting on. The goal is to have all aspects of primitive archery covered on this channel, from tree selection and ID, stave splitting/curing, bow making/design, string making, arrow making and tuning, flint snapping, and shooting and hunting techniques. If its covered in this forum there will eventually be an episode on it. If you are an established member here who is skilled and knowledgeable on a certain subject and want to make a 30 minute video for the series let me know. The goal is a video media to draw attention to this site and the arts it promotes.

I can arrange to shoot the video clips, but I have no idea how to stitch and edit it all together. Got any recommendations for software and tutorials???
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

This is the first video I ever made. Took 2 hours to do and most of thay was me watching my own clips looking for places to fast forward or cut out because I picked sawdust out my nose. Its simple and I took notes on the basic commands to get by. I used CapCut video editing software. Its free, and simple. I can give you my cliff notes if you like.

Great idea, Kevin. This should bring folks here to the Primitive Archer site and hopefully more will join.  :OK
