Ever since seeing "Ausable's" Griffin with what I concluded to be waterfall bubinga, I have wanted to put some into one of my bows.  It is beautiful stuff!  Lots of internet searching (actually I just googled it and it came up on the first page), I found this:



A ten foot piece of lumber, ready for countless bows!  It's just a little out of my price range though.
 Sure is some pretty stuff!

The First custom bow that I owned had Waterfall Bubinga Veneers under clear glass.  I sure miss that bow!!!!  Pretty stuff is right!

That is a beautiful piece of wood!! I've seen a couple bows with waterfall veneers and they sure were gorgeous.

That sure is beautiful wood!  I bet you could buy a couple pieces of it from a bowyer or maybe even a  Woodcraft   store.

WOW!
"instinctive archery" is more like playing the violin. Without practice you may remember the mechanics, but you will not be a virtuoso.

I'm guessing that board is in the $4-5K range, right?

as a woodworker, I can't imagine chopping THAT board  up into bow veneers. it deserves to be bookended for high end tables and such.
