Was requested I post a video.

First draw is to my face 26" and the last 2 are the full 31" to the end of the tip.   Tried to get a video shooting but it was too dark.  Its actually very smooth considering the weight.
The bow is 78".  Really rockets that 730gr arrow.

Beautiful arc of a circle tiller.  :thumbsup:    ...and this  :notworthy: for pulling that sucker to 31".
Make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes!

That tiller is perfect, very nice bow.

Does it matter if you shoot that bow left hand or right hand?  That's a nice looking bow, but, my shoulder hurts just looking at it  .LOL

Wow, my shoulder is aching just looking at that pic !

From the tiller, I guessed immediately it was a Ravenbeak longbow!

Beautiful bow!  You definitely made drawing it to 31" look easy!

you can shoot it either way. you can even shoot it right handed with the arrow on the left like they apparently did in medieval times

Hey Ari ,that is a nice looking bow ,the raven beak I got from you shoots just great . Yes I bet that bow really launches an arrow, best of luck with her.
Quote from Howard Hill.( Whenever he taught someone to shoot) "Son make up your mind right now if you want to target shoot or hunt as theres a world of differance between the two"

God bless you, I couldn't even string it up !!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

That, my friend, is a beautiful bow.  But I would just be able to hold it and look at it.  LOL
