Wow - you made a fine bow.  I'd love to shoot it.  Got you bookmarked for June Self Bow of the Month, too.

Much better picture Shannon, thanks....looks pretty good, the outer thirds could bend a little more like you said, but it is Osage, and it should handle that tiller shape just fine at that draw length/weight. :) Nice job on another nice bow.... ;)
Its November, I'm gone hunt'in.......
Osage is still better.....

Looks great, just the right amount of re-curve for my way of thinking. Justin

That's a really good looking bow, and only your third selfbow...very impressive! Seems to me you're a natural bowyer! ;)

How's that youngun' doin'?

Greg that boy is doing the finest! If he keeps growing like he is, i'll have him shooting before he's two. I have plans to start on a really little osage bow for him, something around 30" ntn. Thank all of ya'll for the kind words about the bow, i'm really glad you like it.     Shannon Walker
