Whats the best way to reach village status?

So the best way to use the bear hide is to make a decent bow to rain arrows up on the deer then?

Just join an existing town. No need to make your own, and you would most likely fail anyway.

The best way to reach village status is:
1) Read the wiki and don't whine for help on here.
2) Be a man, and not a pussy.
3) If you are stupid enough to make your own thread rather then visiting other threads, or reading the wiki, you should just join a town.

Honestly, once you get 20 MM and start hunting foxes and boars (lots of easy methods for both, even with minimal combat skills), you can make some decent dried hides with a bit of survival on the skinner. After that just make some hide strips for string and use the other for leather, and bam easy 20~30q sling, now your MM cap is like 40~60 for speed. With that kind of speed and a bit of luck (PER helps too), you can easily hunt everything in the game if you're patient.

These people -- it's like they don't know anything. Anyway.

Yes, shoot for a q40+ Bow so that you can take deer down in 1-2 shots. It's really not difficult at all if you have 2 people work together on it. Just make sure to have a fair bit of marksmanship so that you're gaining accuracy instead of losing accuracy every time the deer jolts. This should be ~40 Marksmanship with a bow.
