That one looks real nice! It sure has that osage color. Didn't I read that it was in the same family?
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Ephesians 2:8-9

Lesken2011, it looks very much like osage, but seems less dense, and the rings are much thicker than any osage I have ever worked. I made the bow wider than when using osage also.

Nice job on the wiggly tiller! Looks like almost no set! How do you guys manage that?

Very nice looking bow, great bend and I like the character in that top limb. Sweet bow all around!

Very nice bow and perfect tiller! Those rollercoaster bumps can be real boogers during tillering. Looks like you handled them perfectly.
