Last week I finished the first R/D bow I built this year. It has osage limbs under clear glass. The riser is made of osage and purple heart split by a mosaic stripe. An overlay of black glass, osage and purple heart finishes it off.
It has a pull of 35# @28" and is 62" long (ntn).

Wow, I really like the look of that. Nice bow.
I've really like the purple heart since my ChekMate Falcon I got last year. Only thing is the detail of the photos doesn't show off your great mosaic work. NICE!
She's a beauty V! Really nice work!
Purple and Gold My old high school colors. That is a beautiful bow.
Cool! Great wood combo, great looking bow.
Top-notch Arnold. Really like those color contrasts!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Awesome bow! That would be a fun one to hunt rabbits and squirrels with!!
Those woods will just keep getting better looking as the years go by. An exceptional looking bow by anyones standards,you are truly talented. Bob
Fun and nice and bright! You won't lose that one out hunting when you lay it on the ground!
Here is a picture I took to get a somewhat better view of the mosaic stripe.

Again a very nice bow Arnold!!
Beautiful bow, I dream of owning such a work of art someday.
Great combination of woods! Very nice bow! ;)
Beautiful Bow! It must feel nice shooting a bow that you handcrafted.
I like the combo of woods V,very purdy.
That is another beauty Arnold :thumbsup: You just keep tempting me, one of these days. We are going to make it happen. I'm thinking 62" 50@ 28" Osage & Cocobolo probably a little ebony flair. Left handed naturally OK OK I gotta quit (http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l101/GUNSMITHAMMO/Smileys/thworalevm2.gif)
Nice work!!
That's a beautiful bow. I really love purple heart. I think it's a nice choice of contrasting woods.
