Having one made by a guy in florida, bow is finished. Arrows with flint heads should be finished next week so should have it 10th or 11th. first self bow so probably wont hunt with it till late season, just have to see how it shoots.

Wish I was! One day I'd like to make one. What kind of set up are you using? Bow wood, shaft material, arrowhead material?

I am in the process of making a board bow from red oak. I am to the point I need to start tillering it and just need a tillering string. So we will see how this thing turns out.

I have one that is laminated ipe backed with bamboo (no glass), and a half dozen new bamboo arows with stone points ready to go. Don't think I am quite ready to take it to the woods yet, but I am going to hunt with it at some point.

I am going to do a little hunting with my AW Selfbow this year. She's 67" and 51# and she is one sweet shooting rascal. Oh, and she's looks as good as she shoots.

[Drawknife]

Yes sir, I'll be out there chasing with my yellar stick. Wouldn't have it any other way.

I just got a brand new laminated bow that is probably the finest bow I have ever had, so the primitive thing is probably on hold a bit till I get my new longbow bloody!

It is a goal of mine to get it done with a stone point, and could not se doing it with anything other than an all wood bow.
