Here's a new bow I finished. Its a sinew-backed horn belly bow. It's a 56" Osage, 51# @28. Its a smooth shooter. Hope you guys like it. And for the hell of it, there's a picture of my new quiver I finally finished. I've got to stop starting to many projects, I got to many waiting on me!

WHOOOAAA!!!
i'll take one of each!

Very nice bow. Is that water buffalo horn on the belly?   What glue(s) did you use for the composite?

That is water buffalo on this one. However I prefer oryx, that was just the last set of water buffalo I had. I just used smooth-on to glue it on.

so does the horn have a higher compressive strength than the osage?- or would it be better served on a lower quality core wood?

Wow.. that is a gorgeous bow. . . Stunning.

Nice quiver too!

Very nice bow and quiver, Nicholas!    

Art work and design reminds me of Ed Scotts bows.

Look forward seeing more of your talent!

Good shootin to ya!

Very nice.

Great looking, congrats, love the art work.

You need to post more pictures of your projects!
Nice work.

Awesome work!

Wow!! That's a great looking bow- nice job.

Stunning!

Thanks guys for the kind words.

fujimo-Horn has a very high compressive strength. I think of it as a "primitive" laminated bow. Sinew, wood, horn.

its a beautiful bow Nick, truly a work of art!

Wow, that is nice work on your bow and quiver!  Love the artwork on the handle  

Wow!!!

Beautiful work Nick!!!

Very nice!

That bow spoke to me.
