Sharp eye John! Hope the rabbits at GORH see it up close this weekend.

You could try a sinew patch or maybe some serving thread in Duco.

Nice! How wide is it? At 62", did it take much set? I'm not too far from you, so I assume our humidity is pretty close. I'm ready to start another Shagbark

Rit dye and rubbing alcohol

i've used the rit dye and alcohol for arrows and most recently for a short pyramid bow for my daughter. she said she wanted a bow in her favorite color. PURPLE. i've used the yellow for laminated birch shafts and they look like osage. very nice bow btw.

Yes it is Osagetree but George, someone started calling me osage whisperer so I had to do a couple hickory's to show osage is not all I do!!
