Title: My new Soy bow
Post by: osage outlaw on February 25, 2015, 08:31:19 pm

Had a note in the mailbox today that said I had a long package at the P.O. that I had to pick up.  It was a new bow from Soy.  It's one sweet looking bow.  Dead straight and some beautiful wood.  It has some of my curly osage in it.  Maybe Soy can name the rest of the wood in it.  I strung it up and flung some arrows.  It's not only a looker, it's a shooter to.  Very quiet and hard hitting.  I'm anxious for the weather to improve so I can get to know it a little better.

I saw photos of the grip section long before it had been final shaped.  I was wondering what became of it. 

I wish you the best with it, Clint.  Couldn't think of anyone more deserving of it!

Really nice bow soy! Looks like it will get the job done. Love to see it at Dave's in a few weeks.

Holy myrtle, Clint's not wearing shorts in the dead of winter :o >:D  You know it must be really cold out.

Blaflair, yes it does make a mean knife handle.  I'll be posting some projects soon where I used some more of it.

Pappy, I'll bring it for sure.

Tracy, I'll bring it to Daves.  And if I'm working outside in that weather I have to wear work pants.  Hard to see in the picture but I'm covered in osage dust  ;)
