This is the second to the last trade bow for the tg bow trade. It's 58in. ntn and pulls 59@28. Osage with zebrawood and cowhorn accents. Finished with 10 coats of shellac.
I'll post a full.draw when the weather improves.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. The shellac is the premised can you get from the home depot. I have been using it to seal the back and end of staves because it stands uat and steam better than anything I have found and it dries in about sixty seconds when it is fresh. It makes for a very hard finish. I was able to get the ten coats on in two days without my wife complaining about the smell of true oil in the house. I just grab on old tshirt, cut it up and dip it in the can and wipe it on... Fast. It sets up very quick so I slop it on and just watch for runs or drips. Ithe company that makes it is zinsser.
Sorry the pics are so small. I will.try to take some with the camera instead of my phone.

Here is the full draw pic. It's the best one I can get for now till my wife comes home from deer hunting this weekend.
Again, sorry for the poor quality pics, but its the best my phone will do.
