well Im Spending My Summer Recovering from surgery so I've spent all my time in the Bow shop. I've been moving at a slow pace but here's what I've got done. 17 Sinew back Osage and black locust bows and 5 self bows, 60 dogwood arrows with homemade iron points and turkey feather fletchings.(30) Pictured. I've got 8 more Sinew back bows drying right now and calling it quits after that for a while. sorry for no full draw pictures but I can't pull the Bows Yet. I've been having my brother draw them and check the tiller, but didn't think to get pictures of that. Enjoy The Pics.

Wow, some great bows there. I particularly like the paddle bow, great paint job... waaaay cool.
That's a mean looking point on that arrow too... when you ship it to me >:D be sure to tell customs that the arrow isn't pointy (When I came to the Classic they asked if my arrows were pointy? .... No Sir... not pointy O:) )
