That sure is a beautiful sight.  I love seeing the variation in color there.  Drooling on the keyboard

Damn OJack, you've been busy......those are beauties. What, are you teachin a class or something...or just mass producing lots of Osage bows?

200? 100 in a month? Thats 3 or more a day.......Amazing.  Sure you don't have some sort of machine that's cranking them out? ;)

I'm impressed.....

Good thing you can always buy one from OJ Charlie. He has plenty for sale as you can see.

Yeah so I see.  Guess I need to go check all the parking lots around town and pick up some change.  If I was rich enough to buy them Pearly, I would and be working on bows daily like you and blackhawk and a few others.  Just love seeing a pretty pile of orange wood, no matter who's it is.

Is this what you do to make a living? If so, McDonalds is hiring and they won't make you work near as hard. Trust me, I've seen the people who work there.

Osage Jack, or Yazoo, or Mike Mcguire, or what ever name you are going by these days why don't you post some pictures of some of your work.  I'm talking about bows, arrows, stuff like that.  You post plenty of pictures of stuff you have for sale.

Your reputation precedes you.

CAVEAT EMPTOR!

I was sitting here with my wife and I say " Oh My" she saw the look on my face and what I was looking at, rolled her eyes and proceeds to tell me that I have "issues" LOL

Nice stash! You've got me drooling...

I just don't like how you have treated members of this site and members of other sites in the past.  I can post some links discussing that if you would like. I think its suspicious you suddenly reappear with a new name shortly before the Classic where you will be selling all of this stuff.  Like I told you in my PM, I wouldn't have a problem with you posting all of this stuff if you were a member year round making contributions to this site other than posting your goods.

Outlaw, post the links, I'd like to read them!
