Osage Longbow Dimensions for my 65# @ 26" selfbow
« on: June 22, 2007, 05:40:21 pm »
Hello,

Some folks have asked for more specifics on the dimensions of the snakey cherry bark backed osage longbow (a.k.a SCBBOL).  So I gave it my best shot and converted an ACAD drawing into a PPT into a JPG.  If you want the actual file, just send me an email.  As an obvious disclaimer, every piece of wood is different so I cannot guarantee anything.

Here are the SPECS:

65.5" tip to tip
~64" nock to nock
65# @ 26"
~3/16" growth ring gaps and the stave was ~9 years old.

Bets of Luck!  Joe

Well crap that sucks.  Just copy the file and use it as a JPG, it will be fine.
