Bob, as always, Beautiful job!!  I wouldn't have put those two colors together, but it works great. I love it.  I guess that's why I build self bows, one less thing to worry about.  By the way 57# is exactly what I'm shooting now, (just say'n) I also have a bunch of nice snakey osage. LOL.

That osage looks really sharp with the charcoal.  Beauty!

Very nice looking bow. Have you tied to shoot it to see if it is too heavy for you? Just wondering but its a beautiful looking piece..Congrats!!

Thanks fellas! I did trap a little and take it down to 55#, and going to keep it for demo model to take to trad shoots.Can handle that weight without real problems, just don't feel the need though when 45# is more than sufficient for our targets which only have a maximum of 28 yards.

Sweet! I plan on starting my 3rd here shortly and will steal a few ideas from this one!
