bamboo backed Osage "semper fidelis"

This bow was made as a gift to a friends daughter who I met the years ago at mojam. I was playing a joke by breaking what I thought was a lost/broken arrow behind someone drawing a new bow back.shortly after breaking the prior to pieces the owner came looking for the little pink store I had in pieces in my hand. I felt horrible and decided to make her a bow. After I got her draw length and weight I started out.this is where I ended up. 58in ntn and 56@26. Bamboo backed Osage, with we're and zebrawood scents in the handle and tips. I used stickers to suntan in the words semper fidelis on the belly.

Gorgeous work, and nice payment of debt! I think you can break as many arrows of most guys on here to get one of those

DVS,
How do you keep the words from tanning to match the rest of the bow over time? It is a very sweet looking bow. I plan on being at mojam this year and will be leaving "arrows" laying around every where.

Good looking bow and the "tan line" was a cool idea. Look forward to seeing it in person in a couple weeks...
