Good job! I like those skinny tips. The tiller of a character stave such as this one always looks a bit wonky, but I think you should be happy with what you got :) No need to cover up that beautiful wood by a handle wrap. Good choice on that!

Osage stick? Well it used to be until you got a hold of it and turned it into a bow, nice bend...

Carerful, - - - someone will put an eye out with that thing!  Awesome job on those skinny tips!  Those may even be a bit too skinny for the likes of Mr. Blackhawk.  He probably wishes he could do tips as skinny as yours...  :P

yeah after tillering the bow I was a bit puzzled with how the brace looked, but the draw felt even and so did the tiller, so I let it be.

Sage-like wisdom!  Couple more decades and I may have the discipline  to "let it be"

You've done some excellent work on this bow.  Thank you for sharing.
