Nice looking bow Scott.
You really took your time at the TN. Classic, and it shows.

I like it when I get to see one of my staves grow up and become good bow.
There were three of then at the TN. Classic this year.

Really fine.  Have yet to make an osage flat selfbow that I'm super thrilled with.

Everything you did summed up to make a really fine bow! Great job, and it ought to make a good huntin' bow. ;)

Thanks for the compliments everybody. I wasn't expecting this big of responce. I couldn't have done it without this website and several people on here giving me some good advice and inspiration! ;)   This wasn't my first bow, it is the third bow that I have made that is a shooter, but it is the first osage that I have attemted. the other two being hickory. I didn't mean to mislead anyone there. I have really learned a lot making this bow though. :)
