Post by: Ray on March 23, 2009, 10:19:26 PM: Nice bows. I like that longbow in the middle with the bamboo backing. What kind of wood is that in the riser and on the belly? It looks like you have 3 woods there in that one bow. Bamboo with what is it ? Bubinga and something else?

Here's my first vine maple self bow.
