Title: A little Maple/bocote mix
Post by: bow loving man on March 31, 2015, 03:26:00 PM

Here is one I finished not long ago
It is Maple and bocote and black phenolic in the riser.  Black glass belly and back and red elm in the core with a layer of bocote in there too...Came out 64" 36#@28" just right for my daughter to shoot.... Thanks Bodork for spraying your finish on it...
