Bow Diddley

Setup and how to play

Bow Diddley

A full-size Bow Diddley, 31 inches long and 10 inches wide, with a ball to keep on the bow. Here's how to set it up and play.

What's in the box

  • Full-size bow, 31 inches long and 10 inches wide
  • Ball

Setup

  1. Unpack it

    Take the bow and the ball out of the box and check that nothing is still taped to the handle.

    Unpack it
  2. Find open space

    Stand with room on every side, away from furniture. A backyard or a rug works well so a dropped ball doesn't roll far.

    Find open space
  3. Get a timer ready

    Hold the bow by its handle, have someone set the ball on top, and start the timer.
