In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Amazing! Selfbow? No sinew? Beautiful, and no string follow that I can see! I'm getting better on judging tiller and that looks perfect to me?

Who ate the halibut!?

I couldn't make something that sweet in 30 years, let alone 3. Excellent work.

did you join the skins in the handle, or was it an extra large flattie!
nice bow- very well done.
have you ever seen the ling cod skins? i have a few in the freezer i am saving for some yew staves to dry out.

Thanks guys.  This bow I built and posted last spring, but it's still one of my favorite hunting bows and love how she is shooting.

fujimo: the skins are two joined at the handle. Yes I have done several ling cod skins and like using them as well. They are fairly tough and add good protection but seem to lose allot of the color when dried.
