Title: 62" Flipped Tip Osage
Post by: blackhawk on June 02, 2013, 08:03:59 pm

Been awhile since I posted one...sorry guys...been busy busy busy this last month...and be prepared for a few more to pop up in the next week as I just sealed up five at once...

I built this one the weekend before the Tennessee Classic...its just a simple no frills decored 62"ntn osage bow with flipped tips...slight bendy....hemp wrap handle...and 58@27". Its a smooth drawing arrow thumper hitter for sure tho..has a couple checks in the limbs,but whats new,its osage....enjoy it for what its worth(which aint much)

You're too modest.That's a beaut.Elegant thin tips are your earmark.I was just wondering what you've been up to.You've got em stacked up to finish I see.

Great looking osage there BH! I know what you mean about the checks, seems lately every piece of osage I whittle down has some hidden cracks in it of some kind, superglue has become my best friend ;D
