Here is a bow I just finished for a friend from PA. I havent been able to post pics for awhile thanks to updates on my smart phone but i may have it figured out now.
Anyway the bow is osage backed with copperhead skins and cocobola tips. The handle is just a leather strip sanded and wrapped to fit the hand. This one was hard to let go but the new owner likes it so im happy with it. Thanks for looking. (Hopefully)

It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.
