That is cool to whoop one out in twenty minutes. I was sittin on the riverbank and thought i'd try that cordage thing one eve - took me an hour to make bout three foot of it, and that's just the cord.

Cool bow, Bob. I would have never thought of sea grape for bow wood. You are definitely pushing the envelope with different and uncommon bow woods. ;)   Pat
