Aloha :)
This bow is a sister-stave from my trade bow - alone it suddenly showed ugly surpises under the the thick sapwood. OK, put it in the corner of shame for a while. Then....a few month's later give it a try. Not too strong, but long. I didn't want to put too much extra work into just to see her blow up, therefore went for a simple longbow. string too centered to decide left or right so I made ambidextrous. Very pleasant shooter she became - never underestimate a good longbow - yew is Queen and finish is not motor oil ;D
