Wood Choices
Will be ordering a new longbow this weekend and dont know much about the different woods used. The ones I'm looking at are all withing 20-$50 of each other ( except osage ). The woods are: ash , hickory, epe & bubinga. The one I had my eye on is bamboo backed bubinga. However, bubinga is not offered in reflex/deflex. Those come in the others listed. Could somone with knowledge of these wood explain the pro's & con's of each ? Pretty psyched to be getting a longbow. Been shooting my recurve at least 3 times a week for the past yr & half. Also , what will be the most noticeable difference when I finally get my longbow ?
