Osage limb bow,1/2 sapwood
« on: January 28, 2020, 09:56:05 am »
 Made this bow from a fairly small diameter limb, the pith is visible at the handle. Deer antler tips. It is 68" long , 55# at 28" draw. I'd like to get drawing it closer to 29" by hunting season.

Looks great!  I especially like the stained back - is that walnut stain perhaps?  It's a really effective contrast with the belly wood.

That's a fine looking bow with a nice bend. That'll do a nice job on a deer.
