Starting a wild looking osage Update... COMPLETED with full draw
bradsmith2010:
sometimes on a crazy piece of wood,, just heating enough to get a string on it,,, will give you the same performance as a more complicated design,, without the risk of cracking and breaking in the process,,
useing a straighter stave for the more complicated design ..

I finally got this one finished up. She pull just about 40# @ 29", I was hoping for more like 48#. I had to wrap it with sinew at the shelf due to a check running off there. I finished it with paraffin. It has a really smooth draw and shot. I'll try to get a full draw picture soon.
