Real nice bow Lee.

I am interested in what type of elm that is? And if you have any pics of the tree, leaves, bark, or pics of the bow before it was stained? Id just like to be able to id the elm type. I have noticed a distinct difference in diffent species for performance.   The bow is awesome by the way. Thanks for posting it.
