Title: Osage bowwww
Post by: Joec123able on October 22, 2015, 06:24:34 pm
Been a while since I posted anything. This is a bow I finished back in February. Simple Osage bow, 62 inches long, 53 at 26. Not an amazing bow, but not horrible either.

Looks like you have yourself a very nice bow made from a beautiful stave.  Congrats and enjoy!

Did you bend deflex into it with heat, or is that set? Are the tips still ahead of the handle?

The deflex was already naturally in the stave so no not set.

Thanks drewster and sieddy
