          Made this one in 1998. Sam had all the "here's what you need to do" and I did most of the whittlin.

          66in, same 70@29 1/2 it was 18 years ago.


          It has a bit of propeller twist to limbs, always has, but still flings 'em ok.

                You mean some Osage staves! If you got some good ones that could be arranged. Arvin

                  Been around, just haven't shot much.

                  My last tournament was back in '08, but I try and shoot a doz or so arrows once or twice a year in the yard.

                    Bought 2 knives off ebay. A greenlee and a witherby. Both are nice, but the greenlee is better at hogging off the wood.

                        I'm not looking for money, but a stave in trade of wood not native here would be nice. As this bow building will not stop now that I have been bitten

                        I have lots of ash in my area so I can cut another when I get a chance.

                          I have a piece of black locust I can trade. The stave is dry and ready to work.

                                Corey, is that an optical illusion, or is the bottom limb bending way more than the top limb?

                                Looks great so far!
