Hi Jbell...here ya go...these specs where posted on page one of this thread so I just moved them here...should have done that anyway.. ::)

Here is the Osage self bow in the first picture. It's still unfinshed here but pretty close to done.
It's 70" NTN and 45# @ 28", and it's 1-1/8" inch wide and tapers to 3/8" tips. You can see the tips are naturally slightly recurved if you look close.  It has a little bit of character to it and ALOT of knots. It's a pretty smooth shooter for a D bow. I haven't shot it through the chrono yet so I'm not sure of the arrow speed but I think it will definitly be good enough to hunt with.

Hi tradrick...I'm in Montgomery. If your ever this way look us up ;D
I didn't make it to the state shoot this year but I usually make it to the shoot that ASTB has in April.
I'm going to try to make it to Pappy's Tenn. Classic when they have it next time. I've been wanting to find some more
shoots to go to and that sounds like a good one!
Bill
