Osage Recurve
« on: October 15, 2012, 10:56:00 PM »
Here is my latest....61" NTN Osage Recurve with Water Bufflao horn underlays and nock overlays. Black Rat snake backing and a beaver tail wrap. The bow pulls 50# @ 27". Thanks for looking.

I'm a sucker for osage and water buff horn.  Great looking work!

Tommy,

I'm interested to know how you prepared the buffalo horn for the underlay. Would you elaborate for those of us who might want to try this?

Thanks! and beautiful bow.
