Finished a couple ASL's and thought this was a little different.  Aromatic cedar.  I have some really knotty stuff and used clear cedar for the cores. I thought it might come in light but hangs with bamboo and walnut cores, which I like to use too. I traded some myrtle for zircote with Typical 2 and put some on this bow. Almost black.

Really nice job Matt!

I bet that dude is lighter than a goose feather in your hand.

I know one of my lightest in the hand bows is my "Dave Johnson" which also uses Eastern Red Cedar.

Thanks guys! That one is definitely light in mass weight. Cedar is without a doubt the best smelling materials I have ever worked with. Just sitting there it makes my work area smell great!  If I used Myrtle for the riser it would be even lighter.

That is a very sweet looking bow....Ya done good!

The lightest mass weight longbows I've had are the Cedar limb'd bows made by Dave Johnson.  Love the cast and smoothness he and that Cedar make together.

Here's one I will probably shoot next weekend for deer. I named it "Beetle".  Back/belly are maple ambrosia laminations and core is bamboo. Chechen riser. It's trapped to the belly. It looks so at home in the freshly fallen leaves.  Grubs eat holes in the wood creating the unique patterns you see. Creates character and the holes,of course, fill with glue.     :archer:
