Bow of my own

[tuffshot]

I have been wanting to build a bow of my own for some time and now I have a few pieces of wood for the riser. Just trying to figure out which one to start with..:whistle: I have a how to bood written by Tom Jennings & Doug Kittredge that I am going to try an follow. Kinda like building a bow the old fashion way. But come to think of it 1961 was concidered modern day archery:)

From the top: Cocobolo, Bocota, Bubinga, Purpleheart, CanaryWood and Curly Maple.
