Nice bow Ken.  Scott's osage is pretty good stuff huh.  Did you glue any reflex into that?

That is such a great wood combo for a bow and your execution is spot on.  ;)

Very nicely done Ken. Great looking bow, noticed that you went with a different handle style, so how do you like the shelf? Anyways it's a beaut.

That's a seriously nice unbraced profile for having no reflex glued in!  Really nice job.
