seasoning yew

<< < (2/2)

billy:
I've had yew do some really weird things when it dried, but that's cause I kept it in a warm, dry house.  Keep it in a cool, shady place and you shouldn't have any problem with it.

Don sent me one of the yew logs that he hauled 6 miles out of the Montana wilderness on his bike. :o It wasn't here a week and it had 3 major checks. :'( This is a 4" log, un-split. I still have it and one day I'll get at least one bow out of it. ;) That is wood going from dry Montana to moist NC.  Pat
