THIS is what Primitive Archer Magazine is about!
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

I can't stop coming back to look at this beautiful bow. I might have to bookmark this thread

Absolutely Fantastic!  So clean, so smooth...

I have a piece of yew, approx 2" wide & 58" long that I've been curing for 5 years...you, Kind Sir, have given me inspiration to pull out that piece and start working on it.  I even have a ton of combed out sinew I will be dedicating to the project.

Thanks for sharing the stats & pics...inspiring to say the least.
