Just curious to see if anyone had used bloodwood as a limb material, I've been considering having a bow made using bloodwood for the limbs. Any info would be good, pictures would be even better. Thanks!
Al,
If you are talking an all-natural bow, bloodwood will make a great bow. It can be a heartbreaker though in that it has a tendency to give up at the least opportune moment. I haven't seen it used in glass bow limbs. It's pretty but heavy. Not normally a good combo for a fast, smooth bow.

Mike,
Thanks - I was thinking that bloodwood would look really good under clear glass, but if it doesn't perform, I'm going to have to go another route. Thanks!
