Title: Snaky osage
Post by: Maxspin on July 30, 2013, 12:05:51 pm

I got this in the mail just before I left on a camping trip. I could not get logged on at home, and my account is tied to my work e-mail.
I am very sorry Shannon that I was not able to let you know that I received it in a timely manner.

Tube on the front porch when I got home….

Some of the detail. My pictures do not do it justice. This bow is beautiful. If I had been asked to describe the bow I would want in a trade, it would have been an osage recurved. This is better that I could have hoped for. I am humbled by the workmanship.

Drawn. Had my son taking pictures. Looks like he missed full draw  :(

Had a chance to shoot it some more. Not only a great looker, but a great shooter as well. Hits hard and puts them where I'm looking.

Thanks Shannon
