Tiercel 6,986 Posted August 4, 2015 Report Share Posted August 4, 2015 Looking at the spalting on the wood I would say it's beech. TC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

.338winmag 78 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Yeah the design is right on ,good grain in the wood etc but it does look a bit long in the fork ,which causes excess tork yah can avoid by cutting em down closer to your fingers ,but hey shoot it an see first might work fine for yah .
