Nice bow it looks like its on fire.  To short for this cowboy I'm using a 60" 45# recurve and its to short. Probably get at least a 62" or 64" down the road.

Cool design. One like this is on my books.
What the arrow speed like? Any stability 'issues'?

Have any full draw pics?  How far will it draw before it starts stacking?

Looks really cool! Do you use a rubber pad style stringer?

I like it.  The finish is just a little outside the box and really sets it apart.

285 grain arrow 184fps @27"
This is the 28" draw
I am not really setup to do a drawforce, but I have holes every inch down the tree. I move a pin every inch and pull down to it.
Look at 21"-22" the statics show the bow getting longer.

This is the 30" draw
