Yep, I saw that one on PA but still just as perty here as it was over there. You have a real knack for nailing those tillers perfect. Nice job Ken. :thumbsup:
I like the walnut underlays.
Nice bow, Ken. How thick and wide is the handle section?
I have an osage stave that I worked down to about 1" and was thinking of a bend-through-the-handle bow.
Stan
thank you semo
thank you Scott, nice to see ya
red its 1 1/4 out of the handle handle thicness is about 5/8th hard to tell but its a single pass handle just one side narrowed for the pass.
thanks guys
yip. nice bow.
thanks James ,guess osage isnt very popular here
Another nice looker Ken. I think it's OK if you want to take some time to sleep between building bows. Do you take much time to shoot any of these?
thanks Scott , i do have a few that i shoot regular . ive actually taken some time off lately and slowed down on building . i would still like to get a dozen or so in by deer season though.
Very nice tiller job Ken. But ya need to cut that grass:)
roy i did yesterday
Thanks, Ken.
