My Son's New Self Bow (we made it)
Check out my son's new self bow. We built it at the Hawkeye Bowmen Shoot here in NY. It took us from 10:00 Am till 9:00 PM to finish it up. I gained a lot of respect for Bowyers. The bow is completely ossage and is 35# at 26". Next year, I'm gonna have to make one for myself. Here is a pic of him shooting.

60+ selfbows......wow!
Thanks for the warnings guys, I but I think I have already been bit. Can't stop appreciating the bow that we built. And am looking forward to the next one already.
I think had to be the best father - son project ever. Andwould most definetely recommend it to anyone. Just expect to put some time into it.

That is very cool! I would love to do that with my two boys. He looks good shooting it. There is nothing like seeing your kids enjoying something you love. I think it is great to see a father taking that much time to something with/for his son.

Thanks guys,
ktbearpaws, we built it at the Hawkeye Bowmen shoot under the direction of Gary Davis.
Usually at most of the major shoots you can buy the staves and build the bows right there using their equipment and under some supervision of an expert.
