Not sure what I did differently rps3 and don't know if I could do it again, I think I just got lucky on this one. Being a stiff handle bow is a bit outta the norm for me as ole' Pearly mentioned and that could just be most of it. I have very few strict set of rules that I adhere to from bow to bow so it basically a crap shoot when I take to building one.
Clint, your right the white dots will stand out more as the osage darkens. There is some really pretty grain in this osage too.
Thanks for the comments guys, looking forward to seeing you at Pappy's in a week and at Marshall in a month.
