Can phenolic replace horn?

[supportnagpra]

for those of us living in industrial areas that have the access, can 1/16th inch linen core phenolic board be used to replace horn on a Hungarian bow? I am able to attain a supply of the original military grade circa world war 2 stuff with a linen core.

I can't answer your question, but I would say try it on a minuture scale first. Also i would rate phenolic with fiberglass
traditional perhaps but not primitive
