I have just about finished this bow and am going out to hunt with it for the last half of the season. It shoot fairly quick at 157 fps with a 615 grain arrow. It had a sister bow that was being built by my friend, but his didn't make it. Very miminimal hand shock and great cast. 60 inches nock to nock. braced at 6 1/6 in. I have some copperhead skins that I am going to put on after bow season. Then I am going to add the leather handle that I wanted.

After being shot in a bit , it has settled in at 60 lbs. I think that it is done settling now after close to 200 shots.

Nice bow! It should be a fine hunting bow!
Great job. Looks great!
Nice Bow,
I'm working on getting there.
Nothing deadlier than a selfbow over 60lbs! Keep us posted when you get one on the ground, you should have no problem.
