« on: June 19, 2011, 09:13:55 pm »
 ;D Got the idea for this bow when i was down visiting Eric in April he took me to fort sill to look at the bows in the museums. Thanks Bro. so here it is tell me what y-all think.  >:D The Bow is 41'' ntn and 47# at 20'' shoots amazingly fast. Its only 3/4'' wide.

It looks like a nice, little bow to me :). I need more draw, that bow is made for a close "gunfight". ;D

Very cool bow.  I have not yet made one that short or narrow.  I like it.

 ;D thanks all. Yes its Osage. It is an amazing little bow. as i do final finish on it i will put on the horse hair. I shot it  a couple hundred times over the weekend and it very fast and accurate should make a great hunting  bow for deer and so on. >:D
