New osage selfbow
« on: December 22, 2019, 11:34:31 PM »
Just got my new Osage self bow. lots of character and a natural center shot. bottom limb has reflex so looks straight but bends even when drawn. stave had a twist but was tillered around so it has a natural center shot for a RH shooter. riser has african blackwood and horn tips. 52#@ 26 68" based off a eastern woodland "sudbury bow" used by the first nations.

Beautiful tiller and good advise from the builder. Even after a short waiting time I would slowly and gradually exercise it out to full draw before snatching it back to full draw. Very nice selfbow.  :thumbsup:
