Your determination to get the stave and make a unique bow like that is one heck of a story…right up to the last chapter! CONGRATULATIONS! Just for us “Character-Bow” want-a-bees, what are the specs? (including the crater dimensions)

That's a special bow right there, and you dotted the I's and crossed the T's with the last picture. Great job.

You are truly, a Holey Man, Chuck. Cool bow, as always. Good luck at Pappy's, you can't go wrong at the Honey Hole.

chapeau! unique looker!

That's not a new osage bow with a hole - that's an old hole with some osage around ....

Man Chuck, you sure lived up to your name! Great job, and a beauty of a bow as well! I love the simplisity of the design.  And congrats on the deer as well.
