Osage Recurve 50# 28"
« on: December 29, 2013, 08:57:34 am »
Hello,
I want to show you my new bow.
Spliced Osage ntn 57" - two layers of sinew backed with birk barch.
She pulls 52# at 28". Hard but fast. (Now 50# and not so hard)
The tips are from laburnum and lilac.

Hope you enjoy.

Greetings from Bavaria
Peter

Really well done, sir. Would it be too much effort to get a closer look at the bark covering because that is especially nice?

Very nice looking recurve.  I sure hope the one I'm working on now turns out that nice.
