It's a, It's a, mutant - yeah, that's the word :D. Splicing two different types of wood never had crossed my mind either. That looks good man, and I'd say your'e an old salt at this game going by the obove posts ;D ;D. Oh, and the bow :).

Welcome to PA, Iron Leg. Looks like you are gonna fit in nicely around these parts. Very nice bow. I'd bet there is a story, or two, about this bow.    Pat

Aha! a hybrid bow. Very nice and bookmarked for March Self Bow of the Month, too.
Takes me back to 2001 when I posted one of my first bows: Water Birch/Hawthorn
I could the forum laughing and laughing. But it is still one of my favorite bows. :P
