Pearlie; google Brian's sign-in name, you'll see how to get some. ;)

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Very  nice Brian.  Seems I remember when you started using Cascara several years ago and you were quite impressed with it.

Yep, cheap yew....or at least close. I think I would compare it more to eastern red cedar, which is another wood I really like! I will post a eastern red cedar bow soon!

Nice bow.  I really like the color / contrast with the skins, wood and handle.    That's a work of art man.   Awesome!
Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about, hmm... except the consistency of squirrel droppings?

That is a nice bow Brian.  Beautiful bends. Cheap yew, eh...that is funny because the bark of both woods are medicinal, one cures cancer, the other cures constipation! 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
