That baby is pipe straight man, you scored.

I love ERC,, made other things from it,, but never a bow!  I may have to get adventurous and try it one day. I'm so used to making shorties,,48"and under. Don't know much about ERC as a bow wood, but I would think it would fail as a "shorty"?
Just starting a longer one now, 60",,and, man,,that seems awefully long to me!

ERC Warbow of course.

I'd split that thing in half and see what's inside.    You know, ERC whitewood makes a good bow also so think about the thicker sapwood areas when you split it out into staves.

sinew back, and add about 5 inches of reflex into it and make yourself an awesome shooter. Pyramid maybe? Would probably be sweet, especially if it were on my bow rack.

warbow time.   

[4dog]

im thinkin warbow...but i do like the idea of a pyramid as well. 

[Wiley]

I imagine you have enough wood in it to make both of them, the better question is which one will you do first?

That is a beautiful specimen of ERC. Such deep color, really pretty and I hope whatever you make from it turns out well.

I'll be watching to see what you decide to do with that beauty.
