In the beginning was John Strunk who begat Ghost Dog, sstewa, nineworlds9 and now Buckhorn47. An osage selfbow made by John now resides in the hands of an old Canadian. I just had to add this photo of the first target this bow met while in my hands. After a five-shot practice round to get familiar with how the bow shot, six arrows were sent to individual spots, in a clockwise manner and this was the result. The bow is 58lbs at 27" and after cutting some heavier spined completed laminated birch arrows from 31"to 28" that weigh 650 grains, I can tell you this bow is quiet ( no silencers ), stacks quite a bit when pulled beyond 27" but what a bow! These arrows were shot at a distance of 9 yards, but very unusual for me to ever hit six spots with six arrows. So, thank you, my brethren.
