Even in these times, dads teach their kids how to make their own bows and arrows. It is a traditional boys' fun. Handmade bows are very similar to primitive bows and arrows from prehistoric times. For example, African bows are made only from bent trees or branches also today. Traditional bowstrings were made from leathers, animal’s guts or strings and attached by tying up to the bow ends. Arrowheads of war arrows were usually poisoned. Maybe that is why African tribes didn’t need to develop the construction of their bows relying to the efficiency of the used poison.
