Mean Green 54”

Finished up this little 54" Hybrid for my 11yr old nephew. In case ya didn't notice, his favorite color is bright green. Lol
Made a few minor changes to the form and put a little longer power lam in this bow compared to my last 54". I haven't tested it yet, but really like how it feels.
36# @28", 7-1/2"BH.
Drawn to 28"

I like the way you did the handle area with the undercut. Very batman-esque

Brad, thats a beauty! 54" Holy smokes! Does it stack?
Any chance you have form plans to share? ;-)

Thanks guys. I try to do something new with every build to challenge my skills. This was the first time for the hook in the riser(I promise I didn't steal it from ya monkey. Guess great minds do think alike. Lol). Also my first time making and using linen micarta. Which was fun, but a pain.

Haven't checked to see where it stacks, but tips don't hit 90 degrees til about 31". The original design would go to 32".
I have the design real close to where I want it, but still need to build one of hunting weight(>40#) to be sure.
