If you are referring to twistedlimb's bow, it isn't sinew backed. The back is bare wood, the sinew is wrapped around the handle and fades. Since the working limbs are one piece of wood and the back is bare it is a selfbow.
Everything happens for a reason, sometimes the reason is you made a bad decision.

It was my mistake guys, went to the wrong post of blackhawk's to grab the picture from.  I've sent Cipriano a new collage that has the correct bow in it.   Dang, I've goofed pictures up 2 months in a row.  If I was my own boss, I'd fire myself. :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

The maple bow (#10) is actually a laminated bow (maple backed maple).

great bows... hard to decide..... I went with the hickory bow.. I thought Misslemaster did a great job...  my runner up would have been the osage. #1.....   great work to all though....
