Jatoba can work pretty well, but don't crowd the tiller too much into a small working area or it will chrysal. I set a new national flight record with a jatoba bow this year. The top limb was actually broken across the belly and the bottom limb had torn itself apart with a dry fire, it was all wrapped in linen string and superglued together, both limbs were badly chrysaled. I was amazed I even got my shots off with that bow. I had only drawn it to about 25" at home cause I wanted to keep it fresh for the flights. Steve
