"10 Ring" Osage
« on: December 13, 2012, 05:31:49 pm »
A few weeks ago Will and I decided it was time to make a trade.  So with my limited skill set he took pity on me and let me get the better of the deal.  In exchange for a bow made by him, the wood chosen by Pappy (man I really did luck out!) and an idea to use a design from Shannon, we commenced to talking.  In the end he got a few arrows and I got a new bow.  I threw in a knife and another half dozen arrows just because the bow was so nice he really deserved more.  The bow shoots really nice and I’m a proud owner of it.  Last month was a good one for me.  I got a Pappy Bow and a Will Bow all in the same month!

It’s an Osage 64” tip to tip, 62” ntn.  It draws 47# @ 27”.   Will Trapped the back.

Jimmy (RangerB) picked it up last weekend and shot it, hitting 11 “10 Rings” in a row.  Will reminded him the name of the bow (10 Ring) was because that’s all it will shoot.   The bow has 10 rings  and shoots 10’s so thus the name.

Thanks Pappy for the choice in woods, and Thanks Will for a great bow, you guys are great friends.

A new bow needs new arrows so I made a dozen of those to go with it.

While I was at it I made Pappy a dozen, because, well, he needed a few and he gave me his arrow shafts to fix up for him.   ;D ;D

That is a sweet stick right there.  What are the skins on it?  Also, did you say trapped back?  Trapping a back on Osage?  With Skins...hmmm..not a bad idea.

They skins are timber rattler slit down the middle. Yeah I trapped the back a little as well just to see what would happen. It turned out to be a real performer! Although I don't have any real data to back that up ::)
