« on: December 26, 2010, 04:23:00 PM »
Ok.... Im just about to put in an order for another Big Jim Buffalo Bow. Im am looking for suggestions, with pics hopefully, for limb veneer ideas.

Here's the bow so far;

Some ideas i was thinking of were snake skin but i dnt know.

Any ideas would be helpful....

Dave - there  are so many woods to choose from, that it's hard to pick one. If you give me some perameters ie., light, dark, burl or wave, curly, etc..
