Went shooting her for the first time yesterday and I like what I saw. Still some fine tuning to do and 5 - 7 lbs to loose but that's fine. I intend to trap the limbs towards the back of the bow. In theory this should allow to build the limbs lighter than usual and therefore give a better performance. Doe's any of you guys here on tradgang have any experience with this kind of trapping the limbs ?

@Mike W: I haven't used the "no glove" a lot, but I can shoot a 60lbs bow without any problem.

You have some good looking lines on the forward half of the riser......  :notworthy:

From the leftover of the riser block I had a very nice piece of cocobolo that I'm going to use for the tips...







I had to cut the window a bit deeper to make sure that the arrows hit exactly where I want. But now the bow is ready to get the finish applied.
