Looks like grass carp.

Nice one!!

Seems the angle to your tip overlays gets more extreme each time I see a bow of yours.

You know, Joe, I could use a little tutorial on how to do them there tip overlays. Maybe Keenan could enlighten us?

Wouldn't expect anything less Keenan.

Fantastic! Love the skins, I gotta get my hands on some of those.

Look like Grass carp i have done two bows with them. Also Grass Carp is thicker than German Carp Skins. Beautiful bow

Wow! I like self bows but usually do not think of them as beautiful; that bow however deserves some serious applause! I think that is one of the prettiest bows I have seen on this forum.

could we talk you into a build along using the limb. From choosing them limb on? Pretty please, and don't worry about that ol man in PA once he gets done with all his traveling and whooping he will be ready for a long nap by the time he gets out your way.

I like the way those skins look. Great job

Keenan · « **Reply #28 on:** December 09, 2011, 10:22:00 AM »

Thank you everyone for such nice compliments.
Kelly I will try to get a buildalong done on the next one. I have several others asking for handle wrap, sinew and fish skin buildalongs as well, so maybe it would be a good plan to nock out four catergories in one shot.

Dan Landis · « **Reply #30 on:** December 09, 2011, 07:30:00 PM »

Keenan, everytime I see one of your bows I think it's the best piece of craftmanship Ive ever seen, then you build another and make it even better. Awesome job, as usual!!!!!!Dan

Keenan · « **Reply #31 on:** December 09, 2011, 08:36:00 PM »

Thank you Bue.
Thank you Dan.I feel about the same with some of your work. That means allot to me. Thanks

Kelly, Never have worried much about ol Roy, Like I said earlier,,,, He's all bark and no bite

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #32 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:18:00 AM »

I've always thought of carp as just a bottom feeding worthless fish. I am having to rethink this! Very nice. What did you use for the finish?
Thanks, David

twitchstick · « **Reply #39 on:** December 13, 2011, 09:17:00 AM »

Great looking bow! I just started roughing out a short juniper bow this last week. I hope mind could turn out as nice as yours.
