Title: New hickory and rattlesnakeskin backed osage.
Post by: swamp yeti on September 12, 2010, 08:27:36 pm

I thought I would make another hickory and rattlesnake backed osage reflex deflex bow.What I did different this time was the wood riser,tip overlays and poundage.The bow is 64 inches tip to tip.a inch and a half at the widest and a half inch at the nocks.The wood riser is wenge and tip overlays are ebony.The bow tillered in at 55#@26 inches,it is a good shooter.

Very nice. I love the lines where you drew back the skin on the back of the bow. Lovely.
