Re: Yew selfbow pictures
Wish you had a feather up your butt and I had that bow, we'd both be tickled

Re: Yew selfbow pictures
What a lovely creation Jimmy!!!
That bow is so elegant looking...that I would be hesitant to call it "Primitive"  Very nice!!!

Re: Yew selfbow pictures
Very cool Jimmy. It was nice to see it going from the shed at Twin Oaks to it's first kill.

Re: Yew selfbow pictures
Thanks guys. I am really enjoying the yew. My first time working with yew.

Re: Yew selfbow pictures
Very nice bow. I have made several yew bows and have one that John Strunk made for me. These pictures inspire me to leave laminated bows for a while and make some self bows. I have some old wood to use up. Once again ,nice job and be careful in cold weather. Yew is a lot more delicate than Osage.

Re: Yew selfbow pictures
Well, if you need to get rid of some of that "old wood" I can provide my address. ;-) I think I have two staves left.
