This is the latest project I've finished. The bow is osage, it is 64" long and pulls 50#@29". There is a layer of deer rawhide under the copperhead skins for some added protection in a dry climate. The stave had some areas of fairly high crown so to avoid razor thin edges I opted to hollow out the belly a bit to match the crown. The tips are buffalo horn and the handle is tanned beaver tail with kangaroo lace. The arrows are doug fir from Surewood Shafts with self nocks, goose feathers fletched with deer sinew with copperhead skin accents.

I’ve been really busy and haven’t had much time to look at or comment on bows lately. Gotta say this one looks sweet. I just really like copperhead and Osage to.
Nice work Weylin.
To everyone else who have posted bows lately that I didn’t reply to I’m sorry but I’m running wide open all day lately

Beautiful bow Weylin with the draw out to 29".Gooood shooter.Very well matched copperheads.I like the arrow shafts also.I've dealt with surewood many times over the last 8 or 9 years.He never disappoints me with his weight and spine selections.Very close to each other.
