Homemade Recurves/Longbows

[leewillis92]

Hey everyone!

I am just starting out in trad archery, and being able to build my own bow really appeals to me in many different ways.  I would ultimately like to make a takedown recurve, and I was wondering if any of you could get some pictures rounded up and post them on here for me.  So show off your peices of art! I wanna see them! Thanks a ton, -Lee

Lee, here is one I made. Remember there is a lot more to a bow than looks. This is a good example, very nice looking bow, but just shoots ok.
