brand new osage recurve
« on: October 30, 2008, 04:49:48 pm »
ok, i finished this a little over a week ago and just haven't had time to post pictures but here it is now.
  its 62"  and 72# @ 26 inches.  really casts an arrow hard, hoping to hunt elk with it next year.
the tips are IPE and buffalo horn overlays and the grip is deer hide i dyed with my homemade black walnut stain.   i used steam to make the recurves. im not convinced they are really perfect but i am happy with them and its shoots well so I'll deal with them.  thanks for looking

I don't see anything wrong with the recurves. Very nice bow.

Very, very nice. Made all the better to hear that it's such a hard shooter.

That's a real beauty! Those curves and the tiller look great. I hope you get an elk with it.

That's a sweet bow. I love the curves and the handle wrap. At 72#, it should make short work of any elk.
