Title: Sleek's Rattlesnake/Osage bow
Post by: lebhuntfish on December 14, 2015, 12:57:07 am

Sleek asked me to post this bow for him. He was having trouble getting this uploaded.
All I know about it is, it's 62in long 45lbs at 28in. Has 2 Rattlesnake skins on the back spalted blackjack oak tip overlays. The end with the velvet tail on it has the overlay carved to look like a rattle. I done the leather handle wrap with leather from hunterbob (thanks buddy). It shoots nice and has a pretty smooth  draw, oh and I shoot it better than sleek does!  >:D
I'll let him fill in the rest.

Full draw pic is not the best but you gotta post one right!

Nice finish work, beautiful bow, looks to be bending a little much in the middle but HA, if you like it I do to. :)
