Northstar
« on: November 29, 2012, 11:20:07 pm »
While most of you are over on that other post about osage started by Mr. Ryan Troublemaker, I thought I'd post another bow!
This one I made for my wife, Linda. I finished it quite a while ago, but just took some pics recently. It's a hickory backed osage (sorry Ryan, osage is still the best!) pyramid flatbow, 68" ntn, 30#@28", purpleheart accents.
I called it 'Northstar.' Like my wife... constant, unmoving, always there as a guide, a becon of light to guide you home.

Really nice.  How'd you get the handle wrap a similar color to the accents?
