A quickly crafted bow I made that can also be broken down into an improvised fishing rod if need be (yes, DayZ Stand Alone was the inspiration for that dual use).

While unlikely to ever have enough power to drop even a whitetail fawn, in a true survival situation, this bow is likely enough to take down a Canadian goose, as those things don't fear humans, and it's easy to get really close to them (they are crazy, violent a--holes likely to attack you, just FYI).

Oh, DISCLAIMER: for some reason those flying, hissing, over-populated s--- factories are a protected specie where I live, so check your local hunting laws if you actually intend to hunt with this bow (you'd be a fool to hunt with this bow unless your next choice was throwing a knife or lawn dart). Seriously, get yourself a powerful bow, proper arrows, and the right broad heads if deer is what you're after. This bow is just for fun, or as a last-ditch weapon.

Total cost of the bow is about $10 ($3 for the dowels, about $7 for the paracord). I'm using about 10 feet of the paracord (I think that one was 100 feet new, so for $27 more dollars, you could make another 9 bows, 10 bows total).

Of course, if theft wasn't an issue in your situation, it could all be free, but let's try not to steal, even if society collapse, hmm? Offering the owner a reasonable and consensual trade benefits us all.

DISCLAIMER 2:
If you hurt yourself, others, or damage property while emulating any of this, congratulations, you're a moron, and I can't be held responsible for your pea-brain that's devoid of all common sense.

DISCLAIMER 3:
If you're triggered by any of my videos, you're in the wrong place. I do blades, bows, and video games. I kindly suggest you check out IraqVeteran8888 or Black Rifle Coffee Company. They specialize in trigger pulling. :p
