Hows she look? Pretty little Osage thing!

Shes 7" long and braces at 1/2". Tiller is a bit off. But for a naked truck mirror I think that she is perfect.

Grip and rest is made with black tape. The string is 1 strand of b-50.

Be careful!  The hot temps inside a vehicle may cause it to lose performance and take a set!!!     :saywhat:    Also, those skinny strings are still a bit controversial...

Nice job on a snazzy little bow.

Traditional bowhunting is often a game of seconds... and inches!

Reminds me of when I was a kid and made bows (out if maple branches w/ dental floss strings) for my G.I. Joe 12" action figures.

Some "barreled" toothpics for arrows with x-acto blade tip broadies and you'll have the coolest fly catcher ever!

That is some great truck art!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
