55" Osage bendy for a friend...
« on: May 21, 2016, 06:10:40 pm »
   Folks,
             This is a back split off a piece of nice Osage that "hunterbob" sent me 2 yrs. ago...The specs are 55"ntn,  51@24 or 54@25...Bottom limb had snake and roller coaster turns, made the limb look kinda wonky from the side, decide not to cook this one with a heat gun and just let it do it's thing...I have paint to put on yet and will let the recipient post that if he see's fit...This is going out to Rich "half eye" in appreciation for the scalloped Seneca replica he sent me...Thanks again Bob for the stave and Rich for the bow...
                                                                                                                                            Don

Awesome bow Don.  I wanna put some pins on my next bow. It looks like that bottom limb could come around a hair more.  Not much...im sure she spits an arrow!

If im seeing it correctly,it seems to be a bow of same width through the grip area,for several inches and then a straight taper to the tips,is that correct?Also,its hard by the pics and video,to judge how wide  and thick it is.Its kind of a weird little thing i do,to try to guess these things by the pics and see how close i am. ;)
