Not too bad at all. Your tips are a bit soft and your fades are a bit stiff. But hey, first bow that gets to full draw is a winner. Nice job! Got another started yet?

[psychmonky]

Im really new to this, but the fades, particularly the bottom one look stiff.

The bow looks amazing though. Being your first puts you lightyears ahead of most aspiring Bowyer's.

[Nim-rod]

Yea I agree....great first effort! Keep it up!

[SportHunter]

Great looking first, has some issues but i havent seen a first bow not have some. Nice job getting a shooter.

[bbs383ci]

thanks guys

PD what do you mean when you say the tips look a little soft, and everyone else please critic ill try to get a side view of it braced on here tomorrow.

[bbs383ci]

Denim

PD no I don't have another started yet went home depot looking through there wood and nothing looked good my little boy came down with steep throat yesterday so I haven't had time to go to another store to check but I cant wait till I get another one going. I think the next one I'm gonna make wider at the fades and make the riser around 11" instead of 8" gonna see if I can lay the fade angle down abit

Great first bow! My first turned into firewood. My second may end up the same way. But I'm determined to get a shooter before Baseball season.
