All,

Bow showed at about 2:05 PM today...just as I was about to jump in the shower for work.  Put it together and just admired it for a couple of minutes...simply awesome!  I only had about 7 minutes to look it over.  64” 3-piece longbow…55 @ 29”, going to be a great bow!  Still trying to come up with a name for it.

No time to take pictures but the Osage limbs have amazing grain...curly in spots, almost translucent.  The riser is brownish-orange Cocobolo with an Osage vertical line.  The checkering on the grip is amazing in the hand…first bow I’ve ever had with this feature, love it.  Bow just has great balance!

Will make a string for it tonight (I like to see a bow in person before I make a string to match the colors) and take some good photo’s tomorrow.

Sorry for the wait…but I’ve learned a few things about telling a story on this site in the last few years.    :goldtooth:  

Thanks,

Josh

We need pictures of this bow every six months so that we can follow how the osage is aging.  :)

I can not get Photobucket to work...I have resized the photo's but when I preview the post they're way to big.

I've never had this much trouble with photos!!!

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Josh

Thanks Randy and Michael...hope this works!

Brian did an awesome job with the Osage I gave him!  The grain in the limbs is amazing...I will take better photo's when we have some sun.
