Osage Plains Style Bow, pics added
« on: March 23, 2014, 06:12:30 pm »
This is my first bow of 2014. This Plains Style Bow is 52" NTN. Sinew backed. Pulls 45# @ 26". Horse hair on tip, leather wrap handle. This bendy handle shots really well. Has a little snakey wave in the lower limb, and was a real pleasure to build. Hope you enjoy. :)

Hmmm, you thinking that might look good in the Black Hills ponderosa pines whilst hunting turkeys?!?!

I know I am thinking that would be the case!

Knapper, I been holding off on the word primitive here for a while, but that looks primitive man. Looks like I just walked into an Indian village...Those tips look cool and nice bend!
