You may be asking yourself, how does a bow-maker take the next step into higher quality bows that hit harder. Well, the answers are many.

Firstly, you may try your hand at whittling down your bow staff during the assembly of the bow. Whittling certain points on the bow allows for more precise handling, faster release, easier targeting, and even more comfort for the wielder. Those interested in advancing into these intermediate skills should try carving the bows they already know how to make and see how they turn out better and more desirable.

Also, the intermediate bowyer can try a more difficult wood like Ash. Use the the Ash Bow Staff in the same fashion as their hickory and elm bretheren. Ash is much more difficult to handle, but once you get the hang of it, it really is a bowyer's ideal wood.
