wow that bow turned out pretty awsome! i challenge you to make a bow from apine and any other wood it can be any kind (longbow, shortbow, recurve ect.) if you can you will be a master bowyer. i am making a bow from a christmas tree at the moment., it wont be easy. again awsome looking bow!

I have made bows from other wood also...ash, hornbeam, cornus mas, black-locust, all bamboo bow, laminate bow, massaranduba and boo, etc...but i dont consider my self being a master....i dont have acces to pine wood, but im sure, that iff u choose your design corectly, it can be possibile to make a bow out of that...thks for your compliments...good luck with your project.
