I just recently was finishing this one up and took it to the family Christmas over the weekend. I'm glad I took pics cuz it didn't make it home.

Osage selfbow with anaconda skin. Cow horn and osage tips. 8 strand ultra cam string. Deer hide grip and arrow plate/shelf. 61 ntn and 48@28.

Nice!

Your bows always have such clean wood and straight lines.

I really like the tip overlays...

Thanks guys. Gotta love this yellow wood.

Psych, thanks for the comment, all the pics came from my cell phone again. One of these days I'm going to have to get me a better camera and take some real nice pics.

Kenny, whoever kidnapped Roy is sure to bring him back if they haven't already. :biglaugh: :deadhorse:

Roy wasn't kidnapped...he got lost again dancing around in that war dress he hangs on his wall due to drinking to many of those fruity beers...lol :laughing:

And I haven't changed my mind about this bow..I still would not have brought that back home with me ;)
