Osage recurve for my wife (No. 69)
« on: October 09, 2015, 03:57:31 pm »
60” ntn
38#/28”

Whenever a bow in the 35# range comes from my workbench, my wife check it out.
And again ad again she says, now that's a lovely one I will take it for me. Same with this one. The bow is tillered out to 28, she draws only 26. So lot of security or say it is overbuilt.
But the bow is very light by mass and spits an arrow very fine.
Nothing special here, some cracks on the back are filled with super glue. I found some nice matching pieces of stripped horn for the overlays.

Simon, you've been putting out a lot of great Osage bows lately.
Great profiles as usual.

Another extra fine Osage bow Simon.  I really like your handle lacing and beautiful tiller as usual from you.  Your wife should be all smiles.

Love the curves on that bow and you have it bending beautifully, as always.  Lovely!

I have to laugh at your definition of "nothing special"  It looks very nice.
