Good luck with your build upstate. Always a challenge in a bow build no matter what the stave looks like. Will stay tuned in. Arvin

I literally just laughed out loud Don.

Thanks for the encouragement everyone. I've got a ring chased and now to reduce the thickness. After that will be taking out the 90 degree twist at one end.  (=)

I'm not sure this is not a ploy to receive some staves in the mail.  :BB Arvin

Watching with great interest.

No Osage for me here, so I just dream of such things.... just not sure if they’re good or bad dreams!

Good luck. 👍🏻

Challenge stave for sure, but if you go slow and easy I feel sure you will get a shooter out of it. :)

I have cut staves that have really bad twist in the middle, offset the twist and spliced them back together.
