Post by: Se1F6ow27 on December 04, 2015, 07:06:00 PM

Hey guys new to the site. Here's a bow I just finished. It's a 57" osage bow 55# @ 28". Its got some copperhead skins on it, sinew-backed and a horn-belly. Hope you guys like it.

Very nice. I'll guess gemsbok horn from the bit of ridge left at the fade of the top limb.

By the way, make the next one lighter! You look like your cheeks are going to EXPLODE!

Ed was like a grandfather to me. I learned so much from him. He was a great man. Miss him a lot.
