Youth Osage bow, arrows, and deer skin quiver
« on: December 23, 2013, 09:51:01 pm »
This is an Osage Orange self bow, dogwood arrows, and a deer skin quiver that I made for my son for Christmas. The bow is 36" overall, and pulls 10-15 pounds at 12-15 inches. The poundage and draw length is an estimate, as I never measured either. My son is only 7 years old, so specifications didn't really matter at this point. Getting him interested in archery, and outside shooting with me is what I was going for.














Thank you,
Dennis Vankirk

That is what gift giving is all about! Beautifull work.  You can see the care and love you put into it.  What memories that will create!

 I can tell that you love your Son very much...You put a lot of time and care into that archery set. Even more important is that you want him involved with you. Merry Christmas to your family and welcome aboard PA.
