Thanks guys. I really appreciate the feedback. Turns out white oak is some good stuff! This is only one of two bows I’ve built with it and both from the same tree. Mostly sapwood.

Marc, I’d be interested in hearing what you think could be done better. I’m amazed that you would put 10” of reflex in your bows. 8” seemed monstrous!

Simk, the mass of the bow is 18.4oz with the leather grip.
