Just finished up this hickory longbow and some arrows. This bow has given me fits. String alignmant,propeller twist, excessive reflex.After ten heat corrections I finally got her dialed in.

After a couple hundred shots she still has over 2.5 inch of reflex.

Looks nice at full draw - nice job. What do you have on the tips? - can't tell from the pics.
Looks great from here and looks to be pretty quick.
I just toasted them up with my torch.
Looks good! :thumbsup:

Great looking Hicbow!
Nice looking bow. I really like the color. How long is it tip to tip?

Looks a keeper!
Great lookin bow! I really like the color. Its always fun to build a bow from a piece of wood that doesnt want to be a bow.
nice bow. I'm fighting a piece of hickory right now too.
For all the problems it came out nice.....real nice!!
