I'm trying to muster up the courage to start on an Osage stave in the garage and could use some visual encouragement.    

Let's see your selfbows in the field, on the range, or on the hunt!

Thanks!

The boys and I went on a little rabbit while a while back

Pat B and Pat B. just confused the crap out of me for a bit.......

Pat's has a period after his user name. What, are you blind, Chad. d;^)

My advice is to watch every video you can find on Utube about bow making, grab your tools an have at it.

I have been teaching bow making for years, the number one thing that prevents most people from completing a bow; fear of failure. Bottom line; just do it, if you mess up, get another stave and start over, no big deal.

Selfbows are deadly, here is my friend Steve with a nice elk he killed with about a #50 selfbow.

I had to doubt take that one as well. HAHAHAHAHA
I need to get me a stave!!

Thanks Eric. I think I fit that category. I hate to fail at anything. Maybe I can use that to my advantage!

Jack is the the selfbow man.
