So, my friend's grandson is turning 7 and I want to make him a little pvc bow. He is almost 4ft tall. How long should his bow be so he can still handle it?

I would shoot for 1/2" pvc, a little longer than he is tall. you could start off 5', and shorten if as needed if it doesn't pull quite hard enough or shoot well.
definitely taper the limbs. Backyard bowyer has great videos on youtube if you need any direction.
Thanks! I've been watching his videos.
