Rugged good-looking bow.
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Thanks everyone. It was a nice piece of osage to work on plus being one on TomB's staves adds lots of good medicine.

Sweet looking bow Pat.
The way you did the rawhide is sharp looking.

 Pat,
        That is one nice bend on that piece of Osage, it should last forever. That "Farm Hand" will work out for sure...
