Notes:

A medium weight bow, very straight when un-strung.  Feels heavy (massive) in the hand.

The material this bow is made from is a sort of dense plywood which is made for mounting heavy electrical switchgear. It looks like wood, indeed it looks very nice, and it doesn't give any unfair advantage.  So why not?
