Crafting a Bow in Minecraft

Making a bow in Minecraft is quite straightforward. You’ll need three sticks and three strings. Sticks can be easily made from wooden planks, and you can get string by defeating spiders or finding it in dungeon chests. Once you’ve got your materials, it’s crafting time!

To create a bow, open your crafting table and place the three sticks in a ‘W’ shape, with one in the bottom left, one in the center, and one in the top right slots of the crafting grid. Then, put a string in each of the remaining right-side slots. Voila! You now have a Minecraft bow.
