Amazing! Selfbow? No sinew? Beautiful, and no string follow that I can see! I'm getting better on judging tiller and that looks perfect to me?

Who ate the halibut!?

I couldn't make something that sweet in 30 years, let alone 3. Excellent work.

did you join the skins in the handle, or was it an extra large flattie!

Thanks guys.  This bow I built and posted last spring, but it's still one of my favorite hunting bows and love how she is shooting.

fujimo: the skins are two joined at the handle. Yes I have done several ling cod skins and like using them as well. They are fairly tough and add good protection but seem to lose allot of the color when dried.
