and another awesome bow by ken, I think the mods might have to start calling this Ken's bench.
I hope I can turn out half as nice bow as you do.

Is that a full draw photo Ken?  Looks like u got monkey arms compared to mine lol.

Looks like u can draw past 34" if u pull to your ear

Here's me at 26" on a good day.  I'm only 66" tall though.

great looking bow,love the handle and skins.It might be just me or the picture but it looks like the upper is bending just a tad more than the lower.
