Title: Great Northern "Field Bow", sons Christmas.
Post by: Lamey on December 23, 2011, 02:50:00 PM

Got this a week or so ago for my sons Christmas gift this year.  A customer/friend of mine had it made in 2001,  its been around a bit but in really good condition.  To my knowledge its the only clear glass "Field Bow" that Jerry made,  im sure there are others out there but this is the only one I have seen.  Its hard to catch the Osage good in pics, but it has aged and mellowed very well.

I was wanting a good intermediate bow for my son (12 years), this will be his Christmas gift along with an American Leathers glove/armguard (thanks to the Turners!).

If it were #10 heavier dad would be keeping it,   here are a few pics,  real good shooting little bow...
