Simon, That is the character of that particular piece of osage. Good snaky osage is as rare as hens teeth. Most snaky or non-straight staves will follow the grain when split. Pat
medicinewheel:
hey pappy! - i allways try to build my bows, arrows and quivers so well, that i have a hard time giving them away; if i had made these two bows, i do not believe i could master that challenge! these are exquisite, outstandig, unbloodybelivable! whatever superlative is no exaggeration in my eyes! - saved all the pictures in a file with your name on it (i keep secret records of some of you guys!)
too bad you cannot win BOM twice in one month...

ps: and hey, dick b. - challenging blank you got there...!
George Tsoukalas:
Awesome bows, Pappy. I really like them. SimonUK, you have to follow the vertical grain on any wood but particularly osage and black locust. When split that will happen automatically but when bandsawn, you have look closely and finnd it. Jawge
Pat B:
Beautiful snake bows Pappy. ;) The skins and finish are great also...but I'm not surprised. ;D Pat
