You nailed that one, Steve. When you decide to help the older Gentleman you know I just inherited a bunch of osage, right?  ;)

That's a great offer, Eddie.  We'll talk it up.  I can always switch out a seasoned stave of mine...

Thanks on the comments, guys.

Great looking bow. I just finished 2 ash bows this year only because they were cut off friends property and they wanted bows from wood off the family farm. I didn't expect much but I was very impressed, cant wait to build a few more.

Looks like a good toast on those limbs!  White wood loves a good toasting!  Great bow!
