There is nothing better than a well crafted fine shooting osage longbow. Over time they become even better taking on a type of personality. Well done.
With a fine osage selfbow, my elkhide quiver filled with cedar arrows fletched with turkey, and with the invitation of the forest, I am about as happy as a man can be.

Swamp Yeti, You have already received so many well deserved accolades that there isn't much left to say, except, that you have splendedly executed all of the basic elements of the flatbow.  Beautiful piece of work!!!
