How long do you plan on letting those season? I bet its not as long as mine and pats have been seasoned. >:D

Steve, I think you said that the snaky stave you gave me had just come out of the ground a day or 2 before you gave it to me. At some point I'll start slowly removing and bad wood and see what is inside. Mine might be a bow by next years Classic but that is just a maybe.  ;D

Great snakes, I see some real cool bows showing up on the site in the future.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with THAT one...

I bought this one as a single billet and then I did a split and splice. Not as fancy as those but it should do the job

Looks pretty sweet! It's on my bucket list to make a snakey bow. Someday
