Jaime, You making a sweet looking bow like that with stone tools takes away all my excuses for not being able to do one with steel tools. Gives great confidence to those of us with less experience.  Danny

hey jamie, what is the difference between slippery elm and swamp elm?
both related to american elm but located more in swampy darker riverbottoms and such [around here anyway].
nice bow man.
