Title: Twisted Sister 42 @ 27"
Post by: perry f. on February 25, 2016, 01:32:05 pm

This is a sister stave to the one Rob W. posted awhile back. It's 58" ntn and 42 @ 27". This is my first Osage and only 3rd self bow. Also my first parrafin finish.

Good job making a bow out of that piece. I know it had its challenges. Now we need to get us some Wapiti weight sticks  carved out.  ;)
