I have a big slab (74" x 6" x 2 1/2") of straight grained soft maple that I picked up thinking I'd just use it for risers (I paid $12). But I am working on a bunch of low draw weight (30 lb or less) sca bows and was thinking of using a few strips for backing red oak. Anyone ever tried this? I'm mainly looking to be able to glue in reflex and make it "pretty" (pretty is important for the recreators).
