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?

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

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.

Keenan

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

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

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.
