Jawge, thanks again! - No, not hand-planed, got them from a German supplier and they are really nice quality! - Actually the new owner shot FG before, and it was a great moment when he came walking over asking me to make an Osage bow for him; he was - like others in my club - impressed by the speed and punch of my bow. His wife ordered the arrows for him as a Xmas pressent.
Dane, thank you, too! - The dye is Permanganate (a lot of strokes) for a really nice brown all over the bow and waterbased woodstain on the rawhide backing, sealed with TB3 worked over with steelwool. Finish is linseedoil based hardwax, many layers.
