hickory staves
« on: December 01, 2008, 07:29:00 AM »
I have some hickory staves listed in the classifieds. I am interested in getting a boo backed hickory unfinished bow made in exchange for some staves. If interested please check classifieds. Thanks
Brian

Those are good looking hickory staves. Why not make your own backed bow. If it were me, I would find a hickory board and back it and save the staves for self bows. I hate to see good self bow staves misused as backed bows.  Pat
