My father used to make me bows from sheoak branches. More flexible than wattle and eucalypt. Could put an Ok weight on it before it snapped - well within what a kid could draw.
When I was a kid made so many but that was the way back then if you wanted something you made it.

Mmmm billy carts and small canons.
