At the first Cumberland Bowmakers Gathering Blayne (Top Predator) brought a beautiful Pacific Dogwood log about 8' long and 8" in diameter. We split it into 4 pieces and each took one. Blaynes broke so I made mine wide. Sorta pyramid. Tips are fumed Ocean Spray. The back is natural coloring. Dogwood bark seems to pop off in wavy pieces leaving that scalloped look. It's 1 3/4" wide, tips are 7/16",65" NTN, 37#@27", shoots in the high 170's, best of 183 @ 10ggp. That really surprised me, I was kinda expecting a bit of a dog since it took almost 2" of set. Just looking at the FD and maybe it could have bent a bit more in the tips. The top limb looks a bit stiff because the inner third twists forward and then back making that section look flat. It shoots real nice and I think the lower weight is going to get me on the right path for form and such.
