I was wondering what types of wood you used. thanks again pics coming soon gotta get the wife to take a few pics full draw

Glad to hear you like the bow! I had a great time making and shooting it. It's maple backed with hickory. I labeled it 45# but I think it's a bit more, honestly I labeled it without measuring it. I'm very glad you like the slim profile, i was going for almost a hybrid style handle and slim pyramidal limb profile. Good luck with it, can't wait to see the pics.
