A selfbow is kind of like a bamboo fly rod in that it does take a little extra care. Pope used to rub his down with a very light coat of linseed oil on occasion. Yew is a soft wood and care needs to be taken so as not to damage one. They are not as tough as laminated bows or Osage. I make mine out of the local "ironwood". Have fun good shooting.
