white oak board bow finished.
« on: January 24, 2016, 07:23:00 PM »
Finished up this white oak board I started many moons ago. I stripped the backing a few times and the stave has been in a corner forever. I think it has earned the right to be my 3d bow this year. 45#@28" and 67 " ntn.

Looks nice   :thumbsup:
It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.

Another nice bow, Rob. White oak makes a great bow but few folks use it as a bow wood.
Make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes!

My dad told me that years ago my grandpa really liked white oak for bows he built. So far I have been impressed with it.
