Don Jochem's All Osage Crocodile

I know we already have a Crocodile on the page, but Don did something a bit different... an all osage Crocodile... and it is spectacular. I was a bit surprised how much so, as I usually go for a contrasting riser....

Hello Dick,
Here is a selection of pics of the Crocodile in an all Osage Orange exhibition. 68" 52#28". Craig loved it right away and had a marvelous time building it. This was the first time he created a longbow this way. I figure how a Redman would look in an all Yew exhibition. I am shooting 55 - 60 lb, but I ordered this one in a draw of 52 lb.
I am 59 years young now. I retire in three years and I really like to shoot this bow still, when I am at the age of 70, so I took a lighter draw. It is a real powerhouse and feels like a feather in my hand. Will you be so kind to put these pics on the bow showcase, where my other bows also found a good place. Some pics are taken in close up to show what kind a macho this bow is. You can feel the strenght of the Osage in some pics. I really would appreciate when you can find time to work this out. If you like some comments by the pics, I will mail you the pics again, not in a map in that case and I will give comment.
Don
