My new Lynn Harrelson Kolomi Straight longbow made it home today! It is Osage/Osage with ebony back over lay and buffalo horn tips. The bow is 68", 45# @ 29" and light in the hand. I just love it!!      :bigsmyl:

I just wanted to add that Lynn was an exceptional great person to deal with! He told me that the Osage used in my bow came from a very very old tree (300-400yrs old) from a plantation down in Montgomery, AL that was hit by lightning over ten years ago. He is almost out of his supply from that tree and I'm am glad to have a piece of something so old.

Lynn is a great guy to know and do bussiness with.
I have two of his Kolomis, one for me and one for my son.  I think our bows are related, from the same tree.  Both mine are a bit different than his regular bows, no shelf.  My son and I are both knuckle draggers!  they are the monly ones I know that he made that way.
Sweet shooters.  I know you will enjoy yours as much as we enjoy ours!

I love Osage!!

Put some decals on it while it's yellow then allow the sun to do its part then when you remove the decal it's permanently marked.

Thanks Matt. I have found that if I don't think about the bow, my form or the arrow; and just burn a hole in my target, my accuracy is a lot better. It works pretty good for me.   :)

Lynn truly is a great guy to deal with. I used to buy arrows from him till he sold the arrow portion of his business. My Kolomi has a core of Persimmon with back and belly in Bamboo. Your osage bow really looks nice, and I know you will enjoy it - I sure like my Kolomi.

Osage is a beautiful bow wood, esp after it ages and darkens up.

Congrats on your new stick!
