Mine is zebra/cocobolo made for buddy who is an amazing hunter and friend. I did red cedar veneers because he does incredible European mounts that he commingles shaved red cedar with.

Zebra wood and padauk with a yew core, wenge and maple accents. Bamboo back and belly. It came out a bit heavy and took some set, but I like it. 😁

Just finished up "Rattlin' Ruby" at Christmas time. Hickory stave cut last April from my Wisconsin woodlot, and dressed with a couple Prairie Rattlers from South Dakota. Nock tips from a whitetail taken a couple years ago on my farm. The leather grip from a Wyoming mule deer. Trimmed in mule deer back sinew and she draws 45# at my 27" draw. I recurved the last 8-10" of limb tips so she shoots smooth and hits where I look (usually😳). String came from Linda Brackenbury in Bend, OR. Besides being a nice shooting bow I like how the Keda Dyed ruby limbs showed through the snakeskin.  Anyway, my favorite...for now!

Wow!  Favorite build?   That will take some thought.....and there might be a couple I would enter as my most interesting or challenging....

This one was a lot more intense to build than a guy would think. Brandon Stahl from Rose Oak Archery sent me a set of cutters and told me to give the pierce point riser a try. (He was a great guy) The mill work was pretty intense just putting the riser together, and shaping the riser just right gives the pattern in the strike plate....seriously intense work by hand....

So I'd have to post this one first.

This one is hands down the most labor of love intensive bow I've ever built. It's also the most expensive one too....price out a snake wood riser block sometime. This one has snakewood under clear glass spliced veneers, and a bit of artwork too.

That's stunning, amazing work.  One question I do not understand I guess.  Why the blind limb mounts instead of a one piece?  I don't see the reason.

I spent some time trying out winding laminations for risers. Too time/labor intensive to pursue, but I do like some of the effects that are possible. Here are two, the second is a lady's bow.

They go in a suit case while traveling....but look like a one piece when assembled.

One I made few years ago. That Waterfall Bubinga veneers look stunning under clear glass.

This one of my favorites. Built it for a donation for the South Dakota Bowhunters banquet a few years back. Wish I would've taken more pics of it.
