Kooks like a meat maker to me Ryano, but its the wrong color of wood

[OldBow]

Super Job and Bookmarked, too.
What's all the white stuff in the backgrouind?

[Ryano]

Dana, like I said when's the last time you saw me post a yellow bow? Been a long time. Don't worry I got some comming up soon.

Don, What white stuff?  lol. Thanks.

Looks nice Ryan, I bet it shoots fast.  Do you find it to be much harder to shoot accurately than a longer one?

 Every time I make a shorty, I think I can shoot it pretty well,  until I pick up one of my longer ones.

[Ryano]

Ya Shannon. I always shoot longer bows more consistently but with a little practice I can shoot one of these good enough to hunt with under 20 yards.

[DanaM]

Gotta say Ryan even though yer a through and through Osage guy, I admire the fact that you still work
with other woods We had 2 feet of snow but its been warm and its melting love the snow for hunting but other that
i'm not so fond of it.

[Ryano]

Dana, I like to experiment as much as the next guy. I wish there were some local wood as good as Osage. I haven't found one yet but Im not done looking. There are definitely some other options out there.

I've been a snow plowing fool lately. We've been getting hammered with Lake effect snow the last two weeks. Its butthole deep wet heavy stuff to. Rifle season starts monday here, I'm glad, this snow will make them slobs work for it.

Nice bow Ryan.  Hard to beat Ironwood as a bow wood

[Ryano]

Thanks guys.
Ya, Tim. I told ya the first pictures were crappy. I'm still not 100% satisfied with these ones but the much better than the ones I took last night. I'm still no good at taking pictures.

Ya, Marc its pretty good stuff.
