Is that the one I was looking at that you brought to my house? It had a couple questionable knots.
Anyways, it looks very nice. Love to shoot it at Thanksgiving.

Great bow - arrow stain looks awesome!  Do you use a punch on the leather and then just lace it up?  Gotta improve my handle wraps...

Rick, I was thinking the same thing. It's strange to see David build an osage "self" bow and with straight limbs.  ::)
  David, she's a beauty and tell Cora I love the arrows SHE made.  ;D
