Glad I saw this Eric! Somehow missed it. Looking forward to seeing how it finishes out! Is Greg that you mentioned our one and only Flutie?
How many hours will you have into this bow from start to finish?

What varieties of wood are in this bow?

No it's not Fluteman. Its switchhitter here on TOO. The building if the bow does not take a lot of time really but there is quite a bit of planning and setup. I would say we put in 5 hours today between the improvising and bs'ing. The glue we are using sucks ass and gets on everything if your not careful. Need to approach the work with a plan or you will have a major mess on your hands
