Elm Warbow

Marc St Louis:
Thanks guys

Yes I call it a warbow but it really is just a strong bow.  I am working on a 100# bow out of Elm for another guy

RyanY:
That is awesome. You're so good I just don't get it! Great work.

adb:
Nice bow, Marc! I have a couple of elm staves seasoning. I haven't yet made a bow from elm, but I know people that have say it's very good, especially for ELB/warbow designs. I look forward to using it.
What type of elm is your bow?

Kviljo:
What's most impressing with your bows are the amount of reflex you are able to give them. I usually feel like there's something I haven't understood yet when I see your bows :P

This one is heat treated, right? How much did you put into it? Are you heat treating longbows differently than flatbows?

Marc St Louis:
Thanks Guys
Couldn't tell you for sure Adam.  It's not White Elm but could be a species of Red

Yes this bow is heat-treated.  I put in about 4" of reflex in the bow.  All my bows are heat-treated the same
