A customer asked if I could make him a full kit in my own style but incorporate his Cherokee heritage. My specialty! There's not much I love more than drawing inspiration from the ancient, tried and true designs.

This 68" long Cherokee-Inspired Osage Selfbow finished out at 54# at 28" draw. The fletchings are trimmed to match an Eastern Woodlands artifact, and hand-crafted steel trade points adorn the business end of the hunting arrows. I really enjoyed this build. You'll just have to trust the profile shots for this one. I forgot to grab a full draw before it went out.

Pat B:
Very nice set. I'm sure your recipient will enjoy and appreciate it.   :OK
 In lieu of a full draw the braced and unbraced profiles suggest a good tiller profile.   

Aksel:
Beautiful bow. really like those nocks. Is it bending in the handle?

Hamish:
Looks really clean and crisply executed. Well done.
