Hard to argue with that bow's title when you look at the tiller!
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

Very nice profile.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Thanks guys means a lot ,just having some fun with the name, ;) I do love Osage but lots of other very good wood out there. ;) Bryce I don't live in the mid west. ;) ;D ;D  rps3 I like the handle,maybe a little larger for me,didn't realize how much the wrap would add,may cut the grip a little smaller on the next one. :-\ I do seem to be getting use to it and you never know,may start making bigger handles/grips. :) Thanks for the comments. :)

Pearlie is right...Pappy's bows have the sweetest bends.  Very clean and simple.  Hope one of them whitetails crosses its path.
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
