Umm.. Yeah John that bow right there would do nicely...My address is.....Wow can I come and learn how to do that kind of work? Oh wait I'm not even that close to artistic or good with tools, but am tinkering with the idea of making a board bow soon. Love the Snake bow and this last one too, of course I'm a sucker for Osage anyway. And both bows are within my weight to shoot. John these are great looking and shooting bows it seems.

That was cool! I didn't know you'd been posting videos. Shows how much I get on here... I gotta get back to building bows again. I've been playing with cane arras too much.

Nice John! Is that bow you shot above the one from the 22 video's you have on youtube?  If it is I'm going to have to come take some lessons, and if its not I call dibs!

Nice work!

Tom,

Stop playin' with your shafts and get back to staves.

Cuban Missile,

No, the one pictured above is a different bow.  It's already spoken for.  I made it for the guy that let me cut wood on his farm.  Actually he did a lot of the cutting work himself.  His name is Todd

 

I am slowly working up to tillering the one from the 22 videos.  Probably post an update later in thh week.

Very, VERY cool!!!

I've been wanting to carve some woodspirits on a bow for a while. Made a kids walking stick with one on it. It turned out pretty good.
