Snakey Osage

I have been told the evolution of the selfbow builder by the guys who have several thousand builds between them.

Goes somethin like this....

First a guy cant find wood straight and clean enough. Builds a few bows then, cant find wood knotty enough. Builds a few more and cant find wood snaky enough. Then, he comes to figgerin straight clean wood builds really good Shootin bows.

That about right Arvin?

Yes but I figured that out at 150 . Haven’t built thousands yet. Close to 300.
Well I'll say!!  Osage is king!!

Yes Dont think there has ever been a PA bow of the year that arrow 5 whitetails in the months it won BOM.

 Just finished the Tit's bows twin. Same wood. shoots same arrows, same weight, same BH's. One inch shorter bow. Same riser config except its a billet bow. Shoots same same. Great hunting rig as well.

Here's the old warrior hanging up getting ready for a rabbit hunt in the skinning shed. Still bloodied from the long whitetail season.

Never had good photo of the lower limb with the character or tips.

Nice bow HH, from a pretty special tree, on a pretty special trail.

You two make a very effective hunting pair for sure.

Yep
I made a sister to this bow for a good hunting friend of mine in KY. Came from same tree 50@28". The tree was right on the stream crossing where the Trail of Tears crossed in Todd County, KY. Was on a good friends 4000 acre farm. There is a huge sink hole depression where underground river and blue hole is exposed of to surface. Lots of chert and arrowheads where the natives of this area knapped lots and lots of stone. Special spot to be sure. Has lime stone ledges where they sat by blue hole and knapped. Its a big area cover by big Oaks, Hackberry and Elms.

This is the Sister to Hind Tit the Working Hunters Bow.

I'm thinking the owner never hunted it much. Dont think he ever killed out with it? Maybe a turkey I think from a blind?
