« on: November 22, 2014, 01:27:11 pm »
Hello, Iīm an Austrian, living in bavaria, and this is my first bow, that I want to present in primitive archer. If my english is not the best, i apologize.
Itīs made from osage(bit snaky), that I bought from Nebraska, it has a Ringcount of more than 30/".
The naked facts: length(58"), 67#/28" and only 396gram, after 4 hours on the 3d-parcours still 67#/28".

Good looking bow!  I love osage. :)
Yeah, I remember when we had a President who didn't wear a tinfoil hat.

You got those stout limbs bending nicely, and with a long draw for the bow length. Very nice. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

bowster, is this your first bow or the first bow you posted here? Which ever, that is a nice even bend and at 67# that is a little beast! 8)

This is the first bow, that I posted on PA, but it is definitely not the first bow Iīve built.
