Just finished this one up from another wonky stave. Osage 47#@28”, 66” ntn. Has about a1/2” knot hole in the upper limb. Roadkill prairie rattler skins for decoration.

I love this bow, you did an excellent job.   What did you use for the rest, and did you use serving at the end of the snake skin?

Wallski, I glue a couple of thin pieces of leather that I use for the handle wrap, the sleeve them down and glue it on, the wrap the handle. I used some thin black polyester upholstery thread to cap off the snake skins with, coated with a thin coating of superglue before finishing everything with Truoil.
