wood tri laminate question.

[Chris Grimbowyer]

Do you guys think a tri wood laminate in a 58 inch duoflex design of say ipe belly yew core and bamboo back (yea i know bb isnt a wood) would be better than say just a bamboo backed yew bow of this design? you could probly replace the ipe with ironwood or something but just curious.

Chris, I can't see why not, here is a picture of a Bamboo backed Walnut core and Osage belly bow I build a couple of years ago.
 
 
Good luck on your project.
Bert.

Thanks Pat,
it makes me smile every time you mention your admiration for that bow, it was an experiment gone right for a change, I can vouch for it's efficiency as well!!
   
Reconize that bow???
Bert.
Sorry for the crappy pic, can't get it any bigger.
Chris, I apologise, didn't mean to change the subject.
