Here is my latest, a 2 piece osage molly curve with bullsnake skins and bacote tips. This bow is going to one of my good buddies that doesn't know it is coming in the mail. He shoots a glass bow now, but hopefully this will convert him. This is my first attempt at a molly type bow, but I figured might as well go all out and try to curve it too. Filed in double nocks in case you want to use a longer string as a stringer. 61" t2t, 2" wide working limbs, 62# @ 28". Definitely my best shooter to date. Hope ya like it.

:o Awesome bow. That thing looks faaaast. All we need now is a full draw...

I also have to give a shout out to misslemaster. After seeing one that he made like this a while back, I had to try one out also.
I will try to round up someone to help w a fd pic.

-

Omg I'm in love with that strung profile I have got to make one like this good job that bow is gorgeous
-
Yeah,i remember misslemasters bow,and this is just as bad (makes me drool on my keyboard too)
Jokes aside Beautiful bow,love that profile!
-
I think that bow would convert any glass-head. Nice work, no show us the full draw!! 8)

Love the bow, need to start me one .
Quick question, are most Mollys fifty fifty on the limbs and levers or does it vary from one typ of wood to another, I'm going to start on a coffee tree stave soon and it may be my first attempt at a Molly.
-
that is a cracker i wish i had a friend who would make me something like that. i think he will be well and truelly converted. i have just ordered some takedown sleeves to do my first one. but dont think i will attempt anything like that just yet. :)
-
that is a sweet brace shot, the only thing that bugs me is the tip overlays, seems like a short glue line, I make a longer cut on mine, but a beauty for sure
-
WOW!!! Stunning bow. Your friend better be blown away when he sees that non-glass bow brother, if not there is no hope for converting him. :)
-
beautiful does not even come close just stunning
-
DAMN!!!! Gotta love tat bow if you don't, you ain't right in the head. Bull snake, I am getting ready to back a bow I made for my wife. Love those too ;D ;D ;D
-
Very nice.Looks great at brace. Looking forward to the FD . God Bless
-
So far so good...just waiting on the money shot ::) .......
-

-

I'm usually not a big fan of mollys, but that bow is really pretty and it looks fast. Nice craftsmenship.

That should do the trick it's a sweet looking bow.
-

Impressive stats and looks great unbraced. Sure would like to see it drawn.
-

-
That's one fine weapon! I'm sure your friend will drop his jaw and his glass bow!
-
Awesome!! I love this design, I have long thought about making one like this. Actually only for about 1.5 years now. lol. you did a great ob, that picture with the two limbs is pretty cool. The weight on that is great, i bet it doesnt feel that heavy.
-
Beautifully done! Josh
