Went down to the archery shop to shoot some arrows. Met my buddy Charley Brown he had a big smile on his face and I knew was in trouble. He said its finished and so was I. Seen what he had and started foaming at the mouth.
She's 62 1/2"knock to knock 55lb at 28 and she's fast. All Osage with a elk sinew backing.

Do you think I should keep her. Like I can give her up now. :rolleyes:
The Osage came from a tree behind a buddies dairy.
Self bows are kick in the pants to shoot.
Awesome!!
Great looking bow in a really good weight! It would be a perfect coyote killer.
A really good friend would accept a few 'yote skins as barter for AT LEAST part of the price... :)
Nice bow. Will you post a full draw pic?
Quit screwing around and show us that fancy thing with a coyote :archer2:
Very nice. Would that be the Charley Brown that was from Tulsa and wrote articles in "The Longbow Digest"?
