Man I appreciate this thread. You just don't see selfbows on TG enough as far as I am concerned.

Here are a few of my bows.


Look past the modern equip. please.


48 and 50 inch bows.


Osage recurve Allan made for me.  He makes bows, I make sticks.


47" sinew backed osage recurve pulling 65 @ 24.


L to R
Osage 32" no longer alive. 47" osage. 68" sinew backed osage recurve, it's back on the bench getting a snakeskin backing. Allan's recurve. 60" sinew backed osage pig stick. Last, my very first osage selfbow, stave given to me by Joe Mattingly. (prized possesion) Not pictured are a variety of longbows and stickbows.
Can't cheat the mountain,
Mountain got it.

I agree with Grey ghost. This is about as trad as it gets and the way I'm hunting next season!

Here's a few of mine.  Some have underlays, siyahs, and/or splines in the limb tips, which doesn't quite make them a true selfbow, but the working portion of them all is a true stave.

A very simple D-bow for my father-in-law.
