Logan sure can shoot! And he's got a nice bow that I bet he never forgets.

Still wish I had sound on this dang computer!

Great job Ranger! What did Logan name the bow?

Jimmy,
You've put a ton of work into this series.  If someone has questions on how to then these video's will take all their excuses away for not giving it a go.  
Well done.  Your Logan looks serious when pulling his string back.  Hope you two have many enjoyable days afield together.
Christopher

Thanks to all. I'm glad you enjoyed them. I just wanted to get a free resource up for people to reference. I think a lot of people want to give selfbows a go, but just can't quite picture some of the finer points of building. Hopefully, this series will be useful to them.

I hope to flip some tips on one this fall and I'll put it up as well. I have a black walnut stave wanting to be formed. Perhaps in August.
