Title: Got the wife hooked with a new bow!
Post by: Stiks-n-Strings on December 25, 2011, 11:44:00 AM
I built this bow for wife for christmas and she is on facebook braggin up a storm    :bigsmyl:  

Here's some pics of the little osage bow I built my Bride for Christmas.


 60" Tip to tip 24# @ 25" a few whoopdies in her with some flipped tips and a little R/D off of DVShunters caul design.

Skinned with copperheads and buffalo horn tips and underlays. Did a tanned copperhead skin leather handle wrap that turned out great.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!

I'm impressed (again), Kris. Really nice looking bow, and the tiller looks great too. How's it shooting for your lady? Only one thing wrong with it that I can see - I bet I don't get that one in the mail as a "S'prise Pkg" -   :biglaugh:

Thanks every body! I'll get her out to shoot as soon as she feels better. She got a little banged up yesterday when she wrecked her Blazer but she's alright.

I'll try to talk her into coming Bona

Sorry to hear about the wreck but glad she is OK, Kris - somebody's got to stay in shape to keep you in line   ;)
