Title: Arrows from a Bradford Pear Tree?
Post by: dmassphoto on March 20, 2010, 12:32:14 am

Hi all,
  I've got a Bradford Pear tree that's just dying to be trimmed down a bit, and I was wondering if anyone's ever tried to make arrow shafts from them, and how that worked out?

Arrows, No....
Bow, Yes..... It makes a pretty decent bow wood.

Haha, well at least now I know!  Maybe it's just dying to be trimmed for a bow then.  ;D  Thanks!
