Life Span Question
« on: July 14, 2010, 10:12:00 AM »
I'm in the process of finishing up my first red oak board bow.  Assuming I finish it properly and care for it properly, what is the life span would you think of a bow like this?  I know I shouldn't assume, but I'm curious how attached I should get to this thing.  Also wondering if I should shoot it this fall or keep my take down recurve set up.  Thanks gentlemen!

-Jeremy Holden

P.S.  When I finish I'll be sure to post pics!
