What I have been up to

This is my Assyrian long bow

Here are some pics of the latest bow I have been working on. My next one will be really Awesome but I will post that later.

Kyudo

Once I saw a Kyudo bow I was in love. In case you did not know Kyudo is Japanese archery and it is crazy. This bow is 8 feet tall and looks lopsided but is so neat it almost doesn't fit in the picture.

New bows

I have made two new bows. 1 is a 75 inch 60 lbs monster, I call it the war bow. I wrapped the limbs with leather and used turquose color beading. The other bow is 25 lbs Yuman Indian style bow with the deflexed ends very need bow has a surpising amount of spring.

Tomahawk

I build my first tomahawk hammers. The one on the left is ironwood and the one on the rt is mesquite. They were really fun to build. Next I will try a peace pipe.

Art Short Bow

   This is the new short bow I put on ebay.

    It is 43 inches long. This is an art bow only non functional.

     I love the handle on this bow,it is so soft.

It is made of alder, which is a pretty cool looking wood.

   I really like this one as a decorative piece it really is nice to look at.

Wayne's Bow

This  is my latest creation for my big bro. It is almost done. I have pics of it as a stick and then as a finished bow before it is backed and dressed. More pics will be added to this post. This maple bow is 72 inches.

Rams

I saw three large rams today out by Mitry lake. What a sight it was I was so close. Thanks to my crappy cell camera they looked far away. It made my day.
