Looks mighty fine. I love that design!! What kind of wood is it?

Oh and Sticks I was thinking of making woodies for it I think it would be fun to try, but it came in under hunting weight (30#) so I'm gonna probably just use it for Carp fishin. Mabye after the next one I'll try my hand at making some arrows.
