I'm planning on going to this one for the first time this year if nothing comes up.

If anyone is interested in building selfbows the Classic is the place. They have the Selfbow Challenge where you buy a stave on site or bring your own and once you've signed up you will have lots of selfbow builders helping you get through your project. On Sunday you shoot the course with other Challengers for score and a possible trophy. We've had as many as 60 folks go through the challenge and end up with shootable bows by Sunday morning. There are folks building selfbows well into the night and early in the mornings so there is no excuse not to get it done.

Is there a good way to store the string so it doesn't lose its twist & I don't have to pack a bow square?

Just an idea, you can make a pretty good arrow tube from a piece of the plastic gutter material sold at lumber yards. I can get 8 arrows in one put 4 in from one end and 4 from the other. I've had one for a few years to throw in the truck. Going to make another to carry in a duffel to fly.

How does his longbow shoot and handle and how is the performance on them? He definitely builds a nice looking bow.

I've been wearing progressives lens for quite a few years. When I first got them they my shooting suffered. Just needed to get used to them. I do need to look more straight at the target through the " good " section of the lens.

Kenny, I'd like to buy a set of your forward handle plans if it's not too late!

I think his bows resemble a big horn much closer than a Bear. I've talked with him on Instagram, seemed like a great dude. I was inquiring about his front overlays on his takedown riser as they're super clean and mine are still slightly sloppy.

This is exceptionally badass.  Hat's off to you sir!

I know this is a little late, but wanted too add what I've done that works well. I have the Black Widow Pelican Case that holds one riser and two sets of limbs plus quiver, accessories, broadheads, strings, tools and 18 Arrows. Definitely labeled it ARCHERY ONLY - NO FIREARMS. Then for complete separate backup, do a fairly inexpensive roller duffle that meets dimension requirements. I put a whole takedown bow, riser and limbs plus accessories in the typical Plano rectangular arrow case, then another Plano rectangular arrow case with arrows. Bow protected with bubble wrap inside around limbs and riser. Then pack with clothes and soft case and whatever in duffle. I wear a backpack stuffed with clothes, meds, essentials, and binoculars etc for carry on... Works great so far. Pics available if helpful.
