Title: ERC warbow?
Post by: Thesquirrelslinger on January 28, 2014, 04:19:47 pm

So as far as I have been able to tell... ERC seems to be yew's weaker cousin.
I know they are not actually related.
However, I happen to have 4 drop dead perfect staves of ERC from a tree nearly 8" in diameter, knot free.
All 80" long.
I want to make a warbow.
Doable?

Marc St. Louis posted a fantastic erc warbow a while back. I would shoot him a PM if I were you. It will probably have to be quite large dimensions to reach warbow weight.

Yup, I was gonna say the same. Probably find it if you do a search.
