Got an Osage flatbow finished up recently. 64" ntn, 50#@28". Vinagroon stained with a beaver tail handle wrap and strike plate. Buffalo horn tip overlays with some scrap bull snake skin accents. Lots of twist and bumps that show in the finished bow. Sweet shooter. I'll take her after turkeys soon when my areas dry up a little.

Very nice Damon. Nice use of materials. Profiles look as good as the bow.

Dang, you just about got all the bend that bow had to offer. Nice job! With so little set too. How much did it take do you know?

Great work Damon. That’s a real beauty, and the tiller doesn’t get any better than that. I love the bull snake accents, they really make it a beautiful work of art. Looks like a real shooter.

Well done that's a stunning bow! Quite a unique way to display the snake skins too very snazzy.
