That thing in the upper right corner is a portable winch, that cannot be in the competition.  I was going to post my pignut hickory, but in comparison to these it is a refined work of art.

I don't know if these count.
They are the ugliest I have.
This green one was a real POS that went back to the bowyer.
 

This one is a nice shooting kodiac

thanks for fixing my pics.  the bow in the right hand corner is also very dusty right now. havnt shot that thing in a month or 2.  should probably pick it back up to practice for 3d season but when ever i go to shoot i see the recurve sitting there and have to shoot that instead.

Zradix,

That top one in green looks like it could be a real PAIN to shoot. I get the feeling that it would be slow and have a good bit of hand shock?


That reverse riser bow is a weird one to look at, but the woodwork and color is real nice.

It really wasn't a bad shooting bow.
It wasn't tillered correctly and the tip started to delam only 10 shots into my ownership of the new bow.
