Made this for my buddy, cause it was his birthday and I am trying to get him interested in Trad.

Osage selfbow, 65", 55#@28". My first leather wrapped handle. Should have looked on here for a "how to", but as usual,,, I just made it up as I went along. Used a mohogany stain on it and it kinda looks as if it was aged osage.

 
 

By the way I am not used to drawing a bow right handed!

Man I need to get a Osage stave....    


Great looking bow

Other then high elbow... You draw good.

Looks real nice.  Nice fade in on the handle.  Looks like one straight piece of osage.

Nice arc of the circle tiller. Should make a convert of him, nice work Joe.
