I just finished up a bow that was too nice not to share. It is 66" long osage, 57# @ 28". The tips are deer antler, skins are water moccasins, and the grip is clean buckskin colored deer hide that will age with the oils (and hopefully) blood on the hand to give a real sweet look. I was very pleased with the outcome and this is my 197th bow built to date. getting real close that 200 mark!

Nice bow . I think you have had it down for a while now. I need another 25 to hit the 200 mark. I would say most folks figure it out pretty good at a100 bows though. Congrats . Arvin

Beautiful bow, truly beautiful. I assume it shoots as good as it looks? Any comment on performance? Also, can we see it at full draw? Thanks

Looks nice and clean, my favorite osage.

If I had that copperhead in my yard yesterday, it would be on the drying rack today! I dont get copperheads this far south, but I sure do like their skins. Yes, I do agree, they basically are a highlands moccasin
