« on: March 12, 2023, 08:31:14 pm »
66" NTN Osage 48@28. Stave from my buddy Clint. Thanks Clint! Rawhide backed with a variety of stains on it. Just keeped messing with it until I gave up. Couldn't tell you how to replicate If I had to. Handle built up and tips are purple leaf plum. Thanks for looking

Looks great Paul.

I like the stain job. It’s a good look

Very nice lookin bow.  I know how that feels.  Sometimes you just got to call it done.  The bend looks really good on this bow.  Nicely done.

Another beauty. Smells like a hunting bow.
