Hey guys, looking for a source for some bamboo backing. Doesn't have to be pre flattened but would be a plus. Thanks

well, 3Rivers is one source for both pre-flattened and otherwise. I have no experience with this product so I cannot add comments about quality.

Mike Yancey at Pine Hollow longbows and a Sponser here. :thumbsup:

I don't know of any a boo backing that comes thin enough to just cut and put on the bow. They come 2x72 strips most of the time and will need thinning and tapering if that's what your planning on.

I was just looking at Echo Archery the other day, a sponsor here, they have a lot of boo.

Check the big auction site for "bamboo planks". I got a bundle of 40 from that place and they were good quality. I haven't ran into one yet that I wouldn't use on a bow.
