Both good looking bows. Some serious curves on the smaller one!

Good job

Cool little bows. It must be difficult to shoot them 4-5" short of your draw. They would be fun to build though!

thanks guys. Theyre nice shooters both of em. I usually shoot 28 inch draw but have no problems with the shorter bows at close range, like 15 yards or so.
