To craft a bow in Minecraft, you need 3 strings and 3 sticks. Arrange the sticks and strings in your crafting table: the sticks in a ‘bow’ shape and the strings in a straight line beside them. Voila! You’ve got yourself a bow. Now, for arrows, you’ll need flint, a stick, and a feather. Place them vertically, in that order, in the crafting table, and you’ll get 4 arrows. Easy, right?
This simple crafting process opens up a whole new world of defense and hunting in Minecraft. With a bow and arrow in hand, you’re not just a builder or explorer anymore; you’re a marksman.
