Lol a little play on words. Heres a hickory recurve with padauk and osage accents. Came out to 50# @27".

Thats a play on words I can get behind.  ;) Might want to be careful about how you shape your overlays. Looks a little fragile. Great tiller!

I've never seen tips quite like that.  I like them!  Nice contrast with the wood choices too.

I wanted to do something different. Wood this pretty deserves something fancy.

Lovely tiller that  8)

Found padauk can get very brittle as it gets older so keep an eye out for it ;)

Great bow! I would be careful about those nocks though too, padauk always breaks on me if it is too thin. Very nice though!
