Thanks , I couldn't put the riser down then Jim says there are probably limbs on that table for for that riser . ooohhhh boy here we go looking for limbs and just happen to find a set at the right weight . Before the end of the trip Jim and I settled on a deal we could both live with and i went home with another great bow.

My next bow in the future will more likely be a  Buffalo. Not sure if it will be 3pc takedown or 2pc.

Here is a pic of Manny's, he was too quick to clean it before I could dig out the camera.    :readit:

Also, Some Osage was Killed while Out and about!

If you need some, ask Jim where to find it!

Lovely little porkers! Just to satisfy my curiosity, how long would the drying time need to be on Osage cut to that dimension before a riser build?

Possum,

Left to its own devises a couple years, but we were working with Jim on an idea to cut that time down considerably.  Talk with him, he would have a better idea on actual times.

I will add, even though we put this wood up to dry in his wood shed, he has far more wood ready to choose from.  If he doesn't have it, you dont want/need it....
Relax,

Looks like it's a great time there.

Doesn't surprise me one bit, as Jim is a great guy.

Got a lot of bows but the Thunderchild is my favorite longbow.

I'll have to see where Jim gets his barrels of p-nut butter.

I could use some for my pig operation in Florida.

Great time was had for sure.
Drew's new bow shoots as fast as she looks beautiful

Charlie was deadly with his bow, as was Drew

Man that was fun!   :campfire:    :archer:
