I am working a new Osage for a friend. It is 62" and I shooting for 45@26. Right now it's bending 45@20 with flipped tips. What you think?

She's coming along nicely. Looks like the area just outside of the right fade is a bit stiff.

That's what a bow's supposed to look like.  I like your work, Jawge.

Maybe I am looking at this too early in the morning, but if the left limb is the top, you sure have a lot of positive tiller?????????? Just looking at the lines on your board.  Love the design and those flipped tips.

I want to build one just like that one!  I've got a beautiful stave, but just have to find the time.

Try some 80 grit sand paper on the belly of that knot below the fade. That may provide a bit more bending in that region of the limb. otherwise looks great!

Thanks everyone, I put skins on it this morning and will be putting a buffalo grip on it with a floppy rest. Pictures when it is finished.
