Thanks folks, just at a stand still. Not sure if I want to back it, and if so, what with........
I know it's just a pic, but what's your opinion on this grain holding up without a backing?
Noahnategrace:
I have a hickory backing strip but since this is my first bow I'm thinking I don't want to waste it on this build, maybe I will just try backless....
JW_Halverson:
Good work playing the grain, sure this ain't your first rodeo?
Noahnategrace:
Yea, it's my first but I have watched so many videos and read so many articles I could host a conference!
I just don't have any experience so making critical decisions like whether or not to back it is crippling my progress.
It's ok that I'm paused though, I've learned to enjoy the process no matter if it takes longer than originally expected.
