Gold Dust 2 with pics

This is a follow up of a stave I posted 3 or 4 weeks back. Just a split off an osage stave I couldn't bring myself to throw away, so turned it into 'plains style' bow for my grandson. The brace tiller isn't perfect as you can see--may have to work on that later. 53" tip to tip, 1 1/4" at the fades, 3/4" at the nocks, 7/8" thick at the handle. 34# at 22", wrapped with jute.

Very nice save on a pices of so called scrap wood. Like they say ,don't take much Osage to make a bow.

Your grandson should be very pleased with this little bow.

I'm my experience, grandkids care a lot less about perfect tiller than we do.   Looks like a great bow.

"H", Ya probably need to worry more about the neighborhood critters than the tiller, because one of the few things I do know for sure is that little ones will whistle arrows down range any chance they get

Thanks for the kind remarks guys.

Rich, you're right. Last weekend I took grandsons and bows to the farm, they were more interested in seeing how far they could launch an arrow, rather than trying to hit the target.
