Osage Static Recurve
« on: September 17, 2015, 06:49:00 PM »
Howdy, gang.  Here's a bow I built back in March of last year but never got around to posting.  It's a year and a half old but is stored in my bow locker at the range, so it hasn't seen much sunlight.  I thought it should at least get its picture taken.  This is the same bow I used for my  brush nocks tutorial .  Here's the particulars:

-Osage with rosewood, padauk, and stabilized curly maple brush nocks
-40#@28"
-63.5" NTN
-Pyramidal limbs that taper from 1.5" at the fades to .5" at the tips
-2" of static reflex
-Tri-tone camo stain back treatment    a la Osagetree .  
-Frosted lacquer finish

Thanks for looking!

That is a real beauty.  :)
What have you written on the back of the handle and on the limb? I can't quite make it all out?
