That is a beauty for sure.  Shopping around for my first stave as I type this.  Can hardly wait to get to making shavings.  It'll be my first attempt.  I'm fortunate enough to have met a fellow ganger at work who has a lot of experience with osage selfbow making.

Nice bow

House ... go for it. Take it slow ...and never when working belly down to get draw lenth and weight "PULL" over your "final" draw weight at any point(KEEP CHECKING). It you stick to this you'll get a working bow out of any stave. Good luck !! Jeff

Very nice!

Cool Jeff! It looks like this one turned out nice but a real man's "man bow"...lol 60# sure puts it out of my range.

Selfbows are just so stinking cool and quiet.

Is this the one you told me you were starting soon?

Thanks for sharing with us.

Seabass  ... I don't sell bows ... but you never know what might end up at your door someday. I make most of my bows .."very Simple". Working man bows !!!

[Stiks-n-Strings]

Way to stick to your sticks LOL

 I'm like you Jeff, Won't seel one but will take time to teach a guy what I know. May just give one away from time to time Just so I have good excuse to make another.

 
 Nice bow by the way. Be sure to post in the bench.

[getstonedprimitivebowhunt]

Steve ...Message me with your draw lenth and poundage. Include your address. One might just show up at your door too someday. If I sold them ..the fun would be taken out of it.

[getstonedprimitivebowhunt]

Stan .. Its not that hard ...a good draw knife and a rasp and a real slow pace will get one done..go for it ! Take time and enjoy the wood...listen to it !!
