I had a skinny offcut of Yew which I patched up to make it thick enough in the middle and then glued on a scrap of Ash as a backing, it's only 55" long and no wider than my thumb at the widest, the upper limb is even narrower.
I just did it for the fun of it and even had to overlay a patch on the side of the tip to correct the string line due to some waggle at the end of the limb. It's about 33# at 27" and shoots very nicely being so narrow. I did a video of the whole process from glued up to being shot:-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juag-r3zlD8&t=77s
Enjoyed the last couple of videos Del, helped fill in the morning. Thanks for that.
