In the last year I have given away 5 bows and a few weeks ago I realized that I need a new bow for the shoot. Osage 58 1/2 ntn, mild reflex/ deflex a few wiggles and wind checks. 49 lbs @26". The skins I had were short they stop about 10" from tip. I dyed the tips brown ( mainly because I had a few burn marks that were driving me nuts). Antler tips and a leather lace wrapped handle. Hopefully I do not embarrass myself to bad with my POOR shooting. Maybe one of you guys can donate a few minutes to me and critique my shooting. Thanks for looking.

That's a really terrific looking bow. Well done man. No way you can embarrass yourself with that in your hand!
-
It looks pretty sweet to me.
-

-

Looks like you've done a great job. Maybe I will see it this weekend if I make it up there. I'd be proud to call it my bow!

Nice job, Paul. Your form looks good from here!! :)
-
Sweet little bow! Hope I get to see it in person.
-
even if you shoot bad it won't matter with that sexy baby in your hand!
-
Nice looking bow, Paul! Can't help you on the shooting. Unfortunately I'm probably a better bow maker than bow shooter. :laugh: I'll see you at Marshall!
-
Thats a real good looking bow Paul, tips, dye, skins, profile and tiller are all outstanding, I want to see that one up close next time I see ya. Nice work ;D
-
well, the only problem I see with that fantastic bow...
It's not mine. ;D
As for shooting, maybe it's just me, but it looks like your feet are spaced out farther apart, in the full draw pic? I know the pic doesn't really show, but it sort of looks like it. I always find that with my feet shoulder width apart, I shoot my best.
But what do I know... ::)
-
Nice bow tips look good.
-
thank you for the kind words everyone. I must add this picture is not a representation of how I shoot ,I took it myself on a self timer and I find myself doing weird things to fit within the lens. hey Greg if you really want to see it how about you hook up with me on Thursday and take a ride to Michigan with me . the passenger seat my van has your name written all over it >:D
-
Sweet Paul....remind me to run the course with ya ;) n you can show me how its done..lol....
And I second Paul's invitation to filling the passenger seat with Greg...I didn't get to talk n hang out with him enough in Tenn.....:D

Wish I could make it there guys, I have many arrows to lose on the 3d range this summer to make room for a new batch but this
weekend has been booked up with other less fun things, courtesy of my social planner (wife). ;) Lose a few for me please. :)

(Do you always point at the critter you are shootin'? Is that so they know it's them you are after? Do you shout "Oi you... freeze!" ;) )
