Great tail, You do a fine job of spinning a yarn, as for you not thinking your a bowyer, trust me you are, and fine one at that!!! ron w

Great job, and thanks for the build-along.

Being a lefty, that bow must be for the one and only Chas Cypher(stick hunter).  I'm sure he will be pleased.

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

That is a awesome Copper Osage Bow.... You do great work. After my move to Tejas I'm going to try to build a Osage bow from a stave...


The detail of your build-a-long is great... Thanx Joe.
