Propeller bow
« on: Today at 05:34:14 pm »
Should have taken a pic of this stave roughed out. Some straightening required. I don’t mind the snake but that with a pretty good propeller kinda sucks. There is better Osage out there. I’ve had this stave for about 8 years. I guess if I’m going to make a bow out of it I might as well get it done.
Well I'll say!!  Osage is king!!

Looking good Arvin.  One of the guys in our local group has always told me that "prop twist makes a faster bow".  I have seen threads arguing the point for years... and I don't know.  He said it was what Jim Hamm taught him.  Looking forward to seeing it.   :OK
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...
