Anyone know the properties of Chinese chestnut? I have several 30+ year old chestnuts that need thinning. I'm going to be cutting every other one and will have some good logs. I was planning on having them milled. Does chestnut make a good material for bows? I'm also going to be cutting a black walnut. I've seen that being used and plan on having that milled as well. Not sure what use I'm going to be making of these boards but thought I'd check to see if they could be used in making a bow.
Thanks.
