I made this little bow a few weeks ago to donate to Powder Creek for their upcoming shoot on July 19-20. The bow is osage, 51 1/2" t/t, just over 1" at the fades and tapering to about 7/16" at the tips. I used medium brown leather dye on this bow except at the tips where I added a crooked arrow drawing with India ink and to finish it off a leather handle wrap. The overlays are bison horn.
She pulls 20#@20". enjoy! Pat

Great looking bow Pat. I wish I had one of those as a kid. I had a 15# fg as a kid and I thought it was the berries. This one should really make some kids' day.
