      before swithing to an epoxy finish I would sometimes tru oil bows. I would sand them down to 220 and then put on a glover and just rub down the whole bow with it. after about the fifth coat it would be really shinny

          I wouldn’t back a bow with boo flooring or ipe. If I was building a backed bow then it needs to be reg bamboo sinew cloth paper or some other sort of material.

          Ipe can be used on the belly and it’s a great choice too

            Pine hollow longbows. I get mine from there for my BBB bows. for all my other boo i get from four winds bamboo in colorado. I use the vertical unfinished flooring.

            Hope this helps

              When you say “best” what do you mean? performance? Looks?

              Performance wise to me probably Sid @ Border bows builds the best performing recurve. Kirk @ bigfoot bows has a high performance recurve. Those are just two that come to mind.

              As far as looks well the beauty is within the beholder. eveyone has opinion on the best but those are my two top performers.

                Chuck over @ two tracks has a god thing going. I havent used them but have heard(or not heard) them in action. and from what all i have read they will outlast several strings.

                    I understand the concept of heterodining and the off placement of silencers and it does work and works really well with all my builds that I send out. I set all mine up this same way 1/3&1/4 and with a SBD string.

                    David I’d like to see a pic of these wood silencers if ya don’t mind.

                      Very sharp looking bow. Agreed you need some blood on her.

                              hard to get cabin fever in Florida. Although we did get a small taste of cold air for a couple days. Man I fell for y’all that live up north and west.

                              hang in there.

                                  I built a few with carbon/glass sleeve. They came out fine. The first one was a little rough getting apart.
