A friend of mine went into the woods with Mike Fedora to find wood for a bow. After cutting the tree down they found a beautiful watermark in the middle of the Tree. The look on Mikes face is priceless, and I'm sure the bow (or bows) he makes out of it will be as well.
Enjoy, I couldn't stop staring at it so I thought you fellas would also enjoy a little eye candy.

Wow! Excuse my ignorance, but what type of wood is that?
I'm pretty sure he said it was a maple tree.
Beautiful looking wood!
I love figured woods!
What a great picture of Mike. A wonderful Bowyer and a terrific gentleman. I can't wait to see his creations from that unusual piece of wood. Great color and figure.
