I would probably make 2 bows. Any way you go should be cool. :)

Penebscot? Are those the goofy two-bow looking thing?

i would cut the limbs off above and below the knot, splice it and make a shorty
PRIMITIVE ARCHERY what other way can you play with sticks and rocks all day and not look like a little kid

I'd go the two bows rout.

But if I were gonna invest both staves in one bow (Cenote Dos) then I would vote for a Splice over a Takedown...  :)

Either way, this should be good.

Gus if I wasnt sitting on so much osage I would really try to squeeze out what I can. Im fortunate in the fact I have plenty of the junk wood laying around to use up. So rather than quanity Im leaning towards one very unique bow. I agree splice over t/d. These staves are board flat so cutting in a splice will be gravy on your taters. And I have JUST enough URAC left to do it right.

I've changed my mind. Put the holes close to the limb tips and see if it whistles when you shoot it!

Ryan I dont think I could hear the whistle over my teeth chattering! I think I settled on a double knot hole bow. Now I need to decide where to put the knots so I can still get decent length limbs, and not a TON of hand shock with misplaced weight.

"Two-holed Molly" just sounds dirty, ...but I kinda like the idea for some reason.   >:D
