fisher2:
so somebody contacted me with a warbow that the tiller is great on and the price is great but i have one issue i want opinion on the woods are
white hickory back argentine osage core, and douglas fir(he says dense old growth) belly...im not sure about the fir do y'all think it will hold up?

adb:
Sounded good until you got to the fir part. I've never heard of fir being used as belly wood for a warbow. I'm not aware that  it's strong in compression. If I was going to make a fir bow, it would be wide and flat. Got any pics of this bow? Full draw pics?

Newindian:
Have you seen the bow in person? Hopefully the price is right for a fir bow. Any pics

fisher2:
i have not seen the bow in person nor have i drawn it, he did show me a pic of a 31" draw on it though

adb:
Care to show us the picture?
