Finished 2 Piece Osage Snake Pics
« on: September 01, 2012, 08:08:00 PM »
This is my first take down and first snake backed bow.  Turned out a little heavier than expected, but still needs a little more break in.
Thanks first to John Scifres for the beautiful osage stave.
The bow is 65" ntn and about 55#@28".  It shoots bamboo shafts with authority.  
Enjoy.
