Let's see pics of your spalted-wood bows!
« on: March 10, 2011, 10:24:00 AM »
I've not seen many bows with spalted wood, but the ones I have seen are great!  Anyone want to share some pics?

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Don't be sore, but you're absolutely wrong!    :scared:    
Here is the back, and the belly;

Tucker (you pup!), those are thumbnails. Click on them and they get too big for the mods to handle... except by deleting them. They might get even bigger if you click on them again. Or they might just be bragging.

I learned what spalted wood is. And that picture of Killdeer's Morrison Arapaho is amazing.
