1st Osage bow by Johnathan Adams

[George Tsoukalas]

Ryan, that's a beauty. Way to supervise! What is the brace height set at? Jawge

[Bear]

Great bow!!! Love the oak leaves.

The brace does look high, just figured it had something to do with the character.

 Right on Jonathan, Congratulations. Chasing paper thin rings is not easy and you got a fine looking bow. Good for you Ryan for your help promoting the sport.

 PS Watch out Jonathan, Ryan is kind of like a pusher. He'll get you hooked and then have you at his door begging for more. This forum dose have an addicts thread for help when the addiction hits you full bore

[OldBow]

Good Job! Bookmarked for April Self BOM, too

[Hillbilly]

Great looking bow for anybody, much less a first one.

[brownhillboy]

Excellent job Jonathan, and great teaching Ryan!  I like the leaf pattern too.

Thanks everybody for all of the encouragement!  A big thanks goes out to RyanO and OutBack Bob for all their knowledge and help.  Without them, the my first osage bow would have never come out as amazing as it did!  Just to let ya'll know... I have already tried to screw up my second osage scave  .  Still learning... and soaking in all the info and help I can.  What an addictive hobby.  I am grateful for any additional ideas, suggestions, input, ect. that anyone has to share.  So, thanks again everyone!  Keep an eye out for future bows. 

[Ryano]

Your welcome Johnathan.  Glad you finally learned how to navigate the internet!  I wasn't going to mention the stave you messed up..... lol.  I hope you hang out here and do some reading once in a while there's a lot you can learn from all the good folks here as well.

Johnathan, Ryan deserves all the credit,all I did is show the bow he helped me withan a little bit of sewing on the handle. Make sure you leave an open day for Presque Isle Trad shoot so that you can put some faces to some of the names. Later Bob   I gota pack some stuff for Tenn. :>)

Congrats Johnathan, on an awesome looking bow.  You had one of the best bowyers around helping you out. 
  As nice as this one is, I can't wait to see another one from you.

[cowboy]

Fine looking weapon there - congrats. Like that artwork too..

[ravenbeak]

A work of art that one is.  I think the obvious qquestion now is can we get an unbraced profile?   
please.


great bow,

[medicinewheel]

Ryan, you seem to be a good teacher!
Indeed a nice bow!

[Ryano]

Raven, I'll try to get him to take another picture but I think she's still holding a couple inches of reflex after resting.
