I'm an amateur bowyer in the UK just North of London. I'm retired, so I have time for this stuff.
Check out my "Bowyers Diary" blog . I mostly use native UK woods and it's mostly self bows or a few backed bows.
150# English Yew Warbow is the heaviest I've built.
I make a point of showing the failures as well as the successes. I try to avoid unsubstantiated theory and stick to the empirical and practical.
