Osage warbow 140# @31"

<< < (2/4) > >>

Ryan Jacob:
It saves mass since osage has a high density.

Del the cat:
Great looking bow :)

JNystrom:
Thanks everyone. 2 rings of sapwood sounds nice too, Pat. I think this has couple more - about 4?
FilipT, i think its still too wide! You could make a elm bow in the same weight with a mass of 4 oz (100g) less.

meanewood:
Nice bow, what's the story with Osage growing in Hungary, was it imported from the US at some stage?

JNystrom:
I don't know about the real origin, we just last summer ordered a bunch of osage from there. It seems like good stuff, some are really heavy, oily and have these black stripes.
