Hickory D-bow

<< < (3/3)

M2A:
Sometimes those fence row hickories can be a real nightmare with twisting/interlocking grain. Good looking bow you got there. Nice job working with the character.

That is a sweet looking bow and pretty clean for a fence line tree!  I think I would tighten your flemish loop a bit if it were me, at least the one shown.

I'm a rookie but really love the hickory and am blessed that they are very plentiful around here.  I actually just had to cut a large one that fell over a backroad, over 30" diameter and didn't take any staves from it, I have more than enough already.  I did cut the prime section at 7' just in case I change my mind...
