Justin, I really like your bow! Extremely good job on a difficult stave. Lot's of good detail and creativity especially with the turtle rest. Great finish work as well! Cute little hunting partner you have there too, maybe you should make her a bow of her own? ;D

Keep posting, I'm sure we all could learn a lot from you in the future... :)

Thanks alot for all the kind words. I am so glad to have a community like this to be able to go to and get inspiration from everyday. It is places like this that get my creative juices flowing and keep me striving to go forward. Thanks!
 Greg, I actually posted that pic of her on accident I meant to post different pic of her holding the braced bow, she got a kick out of it though. ;D She is the proud owner of my first selfbow, wow I've learned alot since then. Justin

Looks like a museum piece to me.  Great worksmanship and perseverance to carve that sucker.  (Straight staves are boring.)  Nice finish, too.

You're a next-level bowyer my friend.  That's a beautiful bow right down to the little details.

  Justin, That is a very impressive bow.  We are often our own worst crittics and you have no reson to be intimidated with a bow like that. I think even the most crittical of bowyers would be drooling over that bow. Congrtaulations Justin, I hope to see more of your work.   Keenan

You are totally right Keenan I am my own worst critic. My biggest downfall is trying to go beyond my abilities, most of my failures are due to me trying to push the envelope, gotta SLOW DOWN. Right now I am gathering all the information I can on building an Egyptian angular bow, gosh why do I do this to myself? Thanks for all the encouraging comments, really has boosted my confidence.  ;D Justin
