Osage selfbow
« on: May 11, 2008, 05:57:00 PM »
Made this for my buddy, cause it was his birthday and I am trying to get him interested in Trad.

Osage selfbow, 65", 55#@28". My first leather wrapped handle. Should have looked on here for a "how to", but as usual,,, I just made it up as I went along. Used a mohogany stain on it and it kinda looks as if it was aged osage.

 
 

By the way I am not used to drawing a bow right handed!

Looks real nice.  Nice fade in on the handle.  Looks like one straight piece of osage.
