Finally got to try out some yew! This is a bamboo backed spliced yew board with a thin strip of redheart in between the two. It has yew and redheart accents in the handle and redheart and horn at the tips. 63" ntn, 50# at 28". The bamboo is covered with rattlesnake skins. Yew certainly is a nice bow wood, but I don't really care too much for it. Due to it's soft nature it dings really easily and I don't like a bow I feel I have to baby. Seems that nothing can beat osage in my book. Excellent shooter though.

Dan,

You make beautiful bows--I really like the lines yours exhibit when braced.  I bet that bow is smooth as silk!!!

Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!
Did I tell yew that I just started a nursery/kindergarten for bows that need to be babied. I'll PM you the address if you're intrested.  :D
I was just dreaming up a profile like that on my drive home today. I'm wrestling with a pronounced R/D all wood and the more I look at it the more I think the extreme R/D's should be left to fiberglass. I do love some curves in a bow and it seems you found a beautiful balance.
How does it shoot?

If yew are scared of dinging it up, just send it my way and i promise i'll baby it for yew. I got a nice soft buckskin sock that would fit it nicely.    Beautiful work , very nice looking bow!
