anyone interested- kids takedown recurve and machete (im guessing no interest)
mullet:
I have a nice Hackberry stave, a Pacific Dogwood stave that has been drieing since 2004 and naturally reflexed, and an osage sapling that would make a real good "bend in the handle" bow, and a short stave of Hophornbeam.

out of the dogwood and hackberry, which could make the strongest bow and what are their lengths

Noel;
Both would make a good, strong bow. The dogwood will be more of a challenge because of the reflex if you don't have a lot of bow making experiance. the hackberry is ready to shape into a bow. Either piece of wood you don't have to worry about following a growth ring.
The hackberry is 64" and the dogwood is 63.5"

fishfinder401:

PS: i looked up the machete and apparently it actually really good quality,( didn't expect that), but it makes me feel better about trading for a stave
