Good job dude that is a cool display but that bow is really good looking.  Who knapped your heads?  Do you do it yourself?  Anyway congrads on a nice deer.

Congrats, you've just joined a very exclusive club. That is if you don't count the thousands of Indians and Cave Men before you.    ;)  

Definitely a feat by today's standards where most are searching for an easier, faster way to achieve their goals.    :clapper:

Beautiful tribute you made there!
Congratulations on an amazing accomplishment! Funny I should say that, as all hunting used to involve so much personal craftsmanship...
I guess that's the alure of Traditional archery, eh?

FANTASTIC!

Steve glad you were at camp with me. It takes another traditional hunter to appreciate our sport. Hope we get to hunt together several more times. I'll get you on a hog before it's over with. Just let me know when you want to come back to the flat ground.

Great shot - just curious about one thing.  With a self bow and stone point why did you choose the modern fletch and plastic nock?  Have you tried self nocked arrows with straight cut fletch?  They are the most authentic looking.
