Mulberry Shorty

[Gus]

That is a beauty, thank you for showing her off.

And thank you for sharing your experience with Mulberry.

Have been hunting a stave worthy trunk or branch for a while.
Will be sure to Peel -N- Seal it once I have it brought to ground and split.

Thanks again guys for all the nice comments on the bow.

Matt S., your welcome here anytime, bud. Wish you had longer to stay, we were just warming the strings up.

Del, back before midnight and not a minute later Mr.

Gus, your welcome. Good luck in your search, too. Mulberry of any size is a rare thing around here. I got lucky with a couple large trees a guy at work wanted cleared out of his yard (he didn't like the mess from all the berries). Those were some of the biggest Mulberry trees that had I'd ever seen. He had one 3 ft. in diameter and there wasn't a bow in that gnarly sucker and just luckily I didn't have to cut it to take the other two.

Sweet little bow,very nice work ,and you are right about persimmon,it will check
like crazy and can turn inside out as it dries.

I've got quite a few mullberry within walking distance of my house, but just don't have the heart to cut one down. I love them berries and all the critters do too, around here every animal that walks, flies, or crawls eats mullberries.

Like you said though, finding a straight trunk on one would be a chore.

Yea, my place in Nebraska had lots of mulberries trees too.  My outside chickens went nuts when they ripened and started falling.  Boy did that purple poop stain everything.  My first few bows were mulberry.

Sweet little bow, I think you squeezed every bit of bow out of that piece of wood that was in it. I like mulberry, one of my favorite bow woods.
