My Mikuta...Brown/Gray Dymondwood riser, Brown Actionwood limbs.

Matching Longbow and Recurve I Built

TREADWAY BLACK SWAMP    SARREL'S SUPERSTITION

Nice, Marc. What kinds of woods are those?

Thanks,
Purpleheart and Padauk with Red Elm Limbs. One bow is about a year older than the other. That's why the difference in tone. They're both settled in about the same now.

My Diamond tomahawk ss 53#@28"    

Beautifull bows guys!
I saw a scottish one, and a german.
I will try to join a pic of my two french longbows.

Great Northern Jackknife Bushbow, hickory cores with birdseye pecan veneers

Wow, since this thread is still floating around and I have picked up another longbow since I posted on the first page....

Just finished staining my first handcrafted bow. It goes on its first 3d hunt on Sunday and I'm counting the hours.

I am surprised to see the majority by a big margin are not actually longbows but hybrids or hybrid type longbows.
Not a slight on the design as I have shot them too. But just an observation.

Here's a couple I made.

First one is curly maple/paduak riser, dyed curly maple/actionboo limbs.




Second one I was going for a more simple "Hill Style".  Walnut riser, black cherry/actionboo limbs.

You can also scroll down our Sponsors List. Click on some of the bowyers sites. They always have a bunch of pictures of their handy work.

Man some nice bows posted..heres one that I made.  

Got a couple new ones since this thing started

What kind of bow is that Jerry?  Nice lines to it.

I'm not going to answer the last ?
I only have 3 longbows. Just laid them down on the floor, sorry about not being able to post full drawn pics.
