I was recently instrumental in saving my neighbor's house from burning down, at least that is how they see it. They wanted to do something nice for me, and knowing my love of selfbows, and specifically John Strunk's selfbows, they told me to call John and have him make me something special, although all of John's bows are special.

So here is it; Twisted Yew! 64", 55#@27", rawhide back, very dense growth rings,ELB nocks, and all sorts of character!!! It shoots fast and with authority.

Nicely set-up photo! Twisted Yew looks quite at home nested in those tangled roots. I don't know what kind of tree that is, but what I can see is magnificent!

Oh, nice bow, too.   :D

(I wanna see a full draw pic, like everybody else here.)
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Very nice. And Congrats on that  "neighborhood watch" success story.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways-BOW in one hand-ARROWS in the other-Body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming-WOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!

A good deed, grateful neighbors and a nice bow! Good stuff!
