Title: Finally done! Rawhide backed Osage
Post by: twitchstick on October 16, 2018, 01:00:01 PM

This has been a long journey to get this bow complete. Life just dose not always give you the time you need. It is 64" NTN and 51@ my draw. The rawhide slipped a little during the glue up but it is holding up great and shooting well.

Nice looking bow, twitchstick. That rawhide backing makes a great painting surface if you have a mind to do that.

Really nice, I like that simple look of the rawhide and on the other side the beautiful Osage color and grain.

Looks really nice stick.  What glue did you use for the rawhide.

Good looking bow.

Where did you get the rawhide?
