You obviously got some good help, that is a sweet bow olschool! I'd trade a bundle of osage for a stave like that too! ;)

Looks Great !!!  Nice work.  I somehow missed the rawhide backing part, thought I was keeping up with the build progress, but there was a lot going on.  Good to see the finished product.  Good time at OJAM.   Donnie

Hi Donnie, Bob helped with the rawhide by my camper, after we got it wrapped in the ace bandage I was done until it dried (which wasn't going to happen in the drizzle on Sunday) so I spent the rest of the weekend around the knappers and knapped my first arrow head.
