Latest Osage bow and a preview of my next project....
jcougar:
Here's my lastest bendy handle osage bow. It's 60" ntn, 1 3/8" wide at the handle, and 3/8" wide at the nocks. It pulls about 65# @ 28". I used medium brown leather dye to stain it. Strangely enough, medium brown dye plus yellow osage equals reddish-orange. The last pic is a preview of my next project. It's another California bow. It will be made in the style of the Maidu/Achumawi bows shown in TTBB1.

I like the color contrast pretty slick. The tiller looks to be right on. Great Job.
