RC started a great topic with homemade longbows and I thought we should include homemade recurves as well.  I've made several recurves, longbows, and selfbows in the 70's and 80's and have hunted with them almost exclusively since.  Here's a couple recurves I made; let's see some more.
   
   
   

Beautiful bow!

Quickblood, that is a really nice bow! I'd be proud of that. And the killl along with it! Nice job!

Thanks for the nice comments!  They are actually 2 different bows; the first 2 pics are the same bow and the last pic is a different bow.  I had enough left over materials that I made the 2nd one later on.  They're both about 25 years old and still see time in the woods.

Ok I will play. Here is this years hope to break it in.                                        

Good stuff!      

Brushwolf, thats a sharp looking bow.

Here are some broke in ones.                                            

                                               

Thanks r-man.

Great lookin bow Quickblood.

Here's mine for this year...

Wow!  Nice stuff.

I just made a one piece that a 50's style,don't know how to post pics though.My next will be a T/D.Great looking bows all you gentlemen.

This is my current recurve. It's a 60's style heavily modified Bingams design. It's 59" 45#@28" and shoots a 450 grn arrow @180fps. Walnut core, black glass, osage riser with osage and bubinga overlays and power lams. Super smooth and easy to shoot.
 

You guys are seriously talented!!! beautiful bows!

K. Bird nice job on shaping the grip and riser, most bows I see are not shaped smoothly,I like mine to look like yours.

Awesome job!

There are some really skilled guys here! great bows!

You guy's are seriously talented. I would have to think it would be awful cool to be able to hunt with a bow that you made yourself, and a bonus to be able to harvest an animal with it.
