I just finished up this Osage take down. Pretty straight forward selfbow.

60" long. 60#@ 27"

Unbraced, notice the snaky top limb (left limb). Bottom limb is nice and straight.



Braced:



Grip area:



Taken-down:



Fades:





Nocks:




Full Draw:



Finished in Satin Spar Varnih for hunting.

Custmer should be happy.

Very cool bow! Nice and simple, except for the takedown part. Pretty easy or are they a pain in the butt? Never tried one myself.

Good job. Very nice pictures, too, except for the Full Draw. Got you bookmarked for August Self Bow of the Month.
