All show no go! Osage self bow
Dan Perry:
I really like the bow next to it. It looks like it is a sweet shooter. What is the wood? Very white in the picture.
I think you are right about the osage bow. Once it softened up, that was it.

Badger:
Dan the lower bow is hickory stav 72" long, The moisture was just a bit higher than I thought so I am letting it dry out a bit more, around 8 1/2% right now, otherwise the bow is finshed. I thought it was dry but I could get it to come around to a low enough mass so I checked my moisture and at that time it was close to 11%. from 11% tp it's 8.5% it has gained about 7# draw weight. Hickory really gets mushy when wet. Steve
