Nice examples of what you can do with saplings. Osage is a great sapling bow wood IMO. Nothing at all wrong with the sapwood.

So much character from sapling and branch bows and you did them both proud.

Those are both beauties! I am particularly fond of sapling bows from the get go. Those two are fine examples of why I like them so much. Josh

Good work.
I personally like sapling bows.
Have been wanting to try a osage sapling so some time. And have a honey locust drying as we speak.

Jimmy, cool bows! How did you get the back so flat? I would've expected it to have a high crown from a branch or sapling.

Very beautiful bows with a lot of character! Well done.
The "fever" is the singularity of each wooden bow, every selfbow is a being of its own and so we are. Plastic bows are pure monotony, no mutltude at all.
