Tri-lam - Hickory, Purpleheart, White oak

RyanY:
Thanks guys. Here's a closer pic of the lams.

bobnewboy:
Very nice  :D  Seems like the purpleheart has stayed fairly bright, which is a bonus!

adb:
Nice bow, Ryan! Your tiller is spot on. Have you tried white oak as a backing wood? I've heard it's good in tension. I have a hard time finding hickory for backing, but white oak is available.

RyanY:
Thanks guys.  :)

adb, I haven't but I hear it's good as well. If using white oak as a backing, the only thing I'd worry about is run offs as the late wood still seemed fairly soft.

tom sawyer:
Shes a thing of beauty Ryan, great glue lines.  It was fun seeing you and Tom shoot it at MOJAM.  Better you than me.  For me that'd be a nice bow blank for a hefty 60lber.
