47" n2n EBO By Accident

Made this Elm backed Osage by accident It's 47" n2n and was supposed to be 56" n2n
(Messure twice cut once) In this case I should have messured 3 or 4 times
Wish I had a place to messure the cast, because this thing shoots hard
Like I said it's 47" n2n 42@26 bend thru handle. 3" handle. 11/2" fades. 1 3/8 at fades tapering to 1/2" at tips with pin nocks. Started with 1" of reflex and ended with 1/4" set. Dressed it up with some beads, a turkey feather, tan suede lace wrap and a floppy rest. Hope ya enjoy.

Don't feel bad, it's a great looking bow (I cut a nock in at the opposite angle this morning so you are not alone
)
Love the arc!

Thanks y'all for the nice comments. I like to have had a stroke when I looked down and saw (no pun intended)
, the mistake I made
Got a Bamboo backed Black Ash glued up with a slight R/D glued in I'm going to start next. I MADE SURE I got this one the right length

That's no accident. Looks like you listened to the wood and made it into what it wanted to be by that nice bend you got there on her

Wow, that's some great tiller on that... I just love that almost a semicircle look.
Sweet little bow.
I hate the term 'expert', but if you gotta have a definition mine is 'The man who can put right his own mistakes'.
And I reckon you certainly put right your missmeasurement.
