Howdy, gang.  Here's a bow I built back in March of last year but never got around to posting.  It's a year and a half old but is stored in my bow locker at the range, so it hasn't seen much sunlight.  I thought it should at least get its picture taken.  This is the same bow I used for my  brush nocks tutorial .  Here's the particulars:

-Osage with rosewood, padauk, and stabilized curly maple brush nocks
-40#@28"
-63.5" NTN
-Pyramidal limbs that taper from 1.5" at the fades to .5" at the tips
-2" of static reflex
-Tri-tone camo stain back treatment    a la Osagetree .  
-Frosted lacquer finish

Thanks for looking!

In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Great job on that. Love the underlays.

Beautiful work on your bow.  Love everything about it!
It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.

That is a real beauty.  :)
What have you written on the back of the handle and on the limb? I can't quite make it all out?

Buemaker

That's a real nice looking bow.
