Thanks guys. I finish my bows with usually 3 coats of tung oil finish, followed by 3 coats of tru oil, and then wet sand it and finally I buff it with olive oil and pumice.

Those both look great! I vote the boo backed yew as well.
I got the lams for mine ground and tapered on the belt sander and the persimmon belly heat treated today and got them glued up with smooth on. I’ll let it sit a couple days before I pop it off and see how the glue lines turned out.

We finally had warm enough weather to apply the finish to my trade bow. It finished 49#@27" and is probably the best bow I have built to date.....and that has always been the goal of the bow trade. I will make a new string for it and then I'll be ready to ship.
Stickhead:
Wow! Looking good!
