Great looking bow!  Did you cut the Juniper yourself and how thin did you get the bamboo?

That it beautiful!  The color and wood contrast is fantastic.  What did you stain the bamboo with?

I really like it.  Is that Western Juniper?  I have some ready to make into a bow, but it seems way too light to handle a bamboo backing.

Thanks. Jboyd I did cut the juniper myself, its one seed juniper. I think the bamboo is an eighth inch. It was already stained when I got it so I'm not sure what its stained with.

If it doesn't rap the lintel, it might not be a longbow.
