Deflex Reflex Osage long bow
« on: February 05, 2010, 01:02:59 pm »
Well its been a while since I've been able to finish a bow, but here's one I've been working on for the last several months. It's a Osage self bow 64" ntn and draws 48#@28"  It's rather plain for my tastes but the fellow who I made it for wanted it that way.
So we stuck with the kiss principle. (Keep it simple stupid) lol.....  ;D
