76'' 110+lb Boo/Ash D bow

Mikkolaht: Why do you boo-back a ash stave? Ash is good in tension but not so good in compression => no need for a boo-backing imho?

[Mikkolaht]

There was no particular reason to do the bamboo backing.
At the time I thought the bamboo would make it 100% bomb proof, but it would have made it even without it.
It was just for practising the lamination process, I didn't have other woods available.

No critisism - I was just curious. You did an impressive bow - good work! - and practicing new things is always good. Better luck for the next! Cheers
