Made by Copper County Bows out of the UP. Great guy to work with. He actually glued up a second bow for me after the first one came in too low in draw weight. This one draws 49# at 28". Red elm limbs with bocote veneers, wenge riser with maple and walnut accents. I can't wait to shoot it.

Have you read Ryan Gill's book, The Secrets & Science of Primitive Archery? It really opened my eyes on a whole bunch of related subjects. I don't know of anyone else doing what Ryan Gill has done with primitive and traditional archery.

I've got a bunch of arrows of all different types. Once I find what spine, etc, I'll most likely order some shafting and make up a couple dozen. Been hearing lots of good things about surewood shafts, might go that route.

True shaft out of BC is good too. I liked true shaft because the sitka spruce was a tad lighter but still strong. Good for 3D. I went back to DF though when i started making my own.

I really like ash, but it doesn't like to stay as straight as fir.
