Osage selfbow
Posted: Fri Oct 25, 2019 2:50 pm
Finally finished off my first Osage selfbow from some timber I harvested a few years ago (and taken me 18 months to build). It's a little snakey and has a mild propeller twist in one limb but so far has shot fine. I've left it unfinished as it came in a little underweight (was aiming for 50#), so I may pike another inch off each limb and possibly use it as a test bed to steam in some reflex in the tips.
Currently 43# @ 28 and 66" NTN.
Yes, I'm aware it should be bending through the fades a little more and the right limb tip is a touch stiff
