Did the Native Americans think about all this that much or just do it?

That looks like a tricky piece of osage for a first stave bow build yet you made it into a nice bow, cool. 8)

Cool bow! Its always good to have one on one help on your first bow, it can be a looooong road without it.

Congratulations, Tower.  A beautiful bow--and even if it did not have our Sasquash as a namesake--it LOOKS like a Sasquatch--gnarly and strong!

Best regards,
