Bow for a lady friend.
« on: December 17, 2017, 04:50:13 pm »
I have a lady friend that told me a story about when she meet her husband, he was a good archer and she was shooting a selfbow, many years ago. She said he told her that she would never be able to shoot one of them things well so she went to a
 Glass long bow and re curve. I decided to surprise her with one I think she will be able to shoot as well  as she does the glass, we will see in Jan. when I give it to her.R/D Osage 62 n-n  37@261/2, I done a little watching and asking to figure just what draw length and weight she liked. ;) :) Deer antler overlays and Rat snake skin, Beaver tail grip. Hope she likes it.  ;)

It's a beauty.
The beaver tail is it tanned or rawhide?

Dang Pappy I think you kinda made that one a little special. Very nice profiles I can't imagine her ever picking up her glass bow again. 😊
