I really would like to gets my hands on an osage self bow made by one of the talented bowyers of Tradgang.  Even better would be to locate someone close to me that would be willing to coach me through building my own. My own functional self bow is my "must have".

I want to try one of the bows that takes all the different limbs.

I mean it can be a longbow one day and a recurve the next.

They just may be too technical for me to figure out but I need to give myself the opportunity to fail..lol

God bless,Mudd

A selfbow made by someone who knows how to do it right...then a selfbow I make.

I already have one, but, I have grown very interested in this whole ILF thing. I think there may be a DAS or a Black Swan in my future.

An original design laminated 2-pc r/d lb that still only exists in my head...oh and did I mention it is super fast, extremely quiet, unique design, and beautiful in an understated kind of way?

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

I have a Sapphire and a Sasquatch coming. I build bows though because I could not find a bow I was completely happy with. Now I'm getting very close with the Talon Takedown Static. Anyone that has not checked out my website and seen them needs to. I hightly doubt that there is a quieter or a smoother pulling recurve made. Its no slouch in the speed department either. Seriously, Check them out. I know you haven't because there are none mentioned on this wish list. God bless you All, Steve

My must have list has been completed.  There's probably an ILF bow in my future though, most likely a Morrison.

Ever since I first looked up custom bows, I have been wanting a Centaur and a Big Jim. The Centaur, Cocobolo & Olive Ash, will be finished next April  :D  Then, a Big Jim Thunderchild TD, all B&W Ebony, will be next!

Another Blacktail in myrtlewood and ebony footing. It will be done in the Spring.

I added a Centaur to the rack and have been loving that bow also.

There are just too many bows out there I want to name them all...maybe that's why I'm toying with the idea of making my own.
