Sorry, should have made that more clear, a friend of mine asked me to make him an all bamboo bow, bambo back heat temered belly and bamboo core, as short and reflexed as possile. I have attempted a few with Ok results, but not good enough to sell. So I told him buy a korean version, I dont know the various names of korean bows but I know they make these types of bow.....He is looking for performance in traditional materials, rather than a specific style... and he doesnt operate computers...Just thought Id try to help him out...
