Bow for a buddy
« on: October 27, 2012, 11:07:45 pm »
Have not made a bow in a while, been busy playing tea party and dolls with the girls. This is a 55" ntn 54@26 osage self bow. Tight rings and a few knots it needed a little heat to line it up. Bocate tips. Have about 100 arrows out of it and I think it is ready for a new home. Just need to make a new string.  I think I have more fun making them and giving them away?

Nice little sage bow there.That baby sits pretty in the unbraced profile, nice and straight with a hint of reflex. Whoever gets that should
be thrilled. Also like what you did on the handle wrap, great bow.

Cool bow. I love that handle!!
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.
