New Osage bow for bear hunting
« on: April 29, 2013, 05:26:22 pm »
I started this bow last year, but ran into some problems and had to modify it.
It was from a stave I got from Pappy in 2010. It ended up 68" NTN and 50#
at 28".

When I was working on this bow, the bottom side delaminated
and I put the bow over in the corner. Last year I set up a bear
hunt with a couple of friends and thought about a take-down.
Thanks for looking.

That is a very awesome bow, besides the character it has a very nice bend.
