Title: Osage with Knots
Post by: KILLER B on November 14, 2007, 09:41:00 PM
Hello all, I have a sage stave that has quite a few decent sized knots in it. I was wondering if you guys and gals that have Osage bows with knots in them could post some pics so I can wrap my mind around a design. Kinda see what the limits are.  It's my first Osage bow and I want to make a real stinger. Thanks.

Thanks guys just tying to seehow far out and around and about how much wood to leave built up around the knots.  Those are some fine looking character bows there guys thanks for sharing.
