I haven't kept exact #'s but something like 25 longbows and 8 or 9 takedown recurves. All laminated glass bows. It's too much fun to stop!! I just hope I never have too.

Numbers are a funny thing... I know there for about 5 years or so I was building over 15 bows a year... But seems like I get around 5-10 these day per year... Made all different types and different woods... I even made a few out of Crepe Myrtle... Never had one break or fail... Also, I have given every bow made to a friend or someone who had an interest in self bows and never sold one... It's a hobby and like most hobbies comes enjoyment and $$$ makes it seem like work and I have a 8-5 job already... Never made a bow for myself for some odd reason... Guess I'm still looking to build the perfect one...  :)
