 Very well done!!

I’ve never done a hackberry. But I’d say you got about all you could get from that stave.

Look forward to seeing more.

Impressive work. 28" draw with a 62" piece of white wood and looks like its unstrung profile is flat or close to it. Well done!

Hackberry is such an under appreciated bow wood. It makes a fine bow, and that’s one to be proud of!
