Title: Osage shorty
Post by: okie64 on October 10, 2013, 04:39:52 pm

Its been awhile since Ive posted a bow so I thought  I would show off this little guy. This stave had been laying around in my shop for a couple of years, it had some drying checks and was fairly narrow. Finally decided to do somethin with it. 42" ntn and pulls 45@21". Thanks for looking.

Cool okie! So ironic you posted this. I just came in from chasing a ring and sawing a shorty out myself. Same story as yours. Laid around long enough. Too short to make a full draw, but too long to burn! Mine is only about 1 1/8" wide though, and about 51" ttt.

Thanks for all the kind words fellas. This little bow really surprised me by how hard it shoots, didnt really know what to expect. I might be building a few more shorties in the future. :)
