Sweet bow, not a bad shot either, great job!

[Bjorn]

Outstanding!!      

[Stiks-n-Strings]

Awesome bow! did it hold very much reflex?

[inksoup]

can you please give us more detail. like:

thickness and wide of limbs, size of handles... if possible zoomed photo-shots to details?

any detail that you can give, since i would like to try this one with eucalyptus wood.
also having such a short bow means you can carry it wherever you may go. this is nice.

best.

Nice. That's got to be one of my favorite profiles.

[razorsharptokill]

Well you know ink, that even with the same bow wood, bows of the same exact dimensions will yield different performance.

I can pass on what this bows dimensions are but especially with another species, it would be a lot different results.

It just shoots awesomely! I notice quite a bit of difference in the quality of the shot if I don't attain an honest full draw.

If I short draw or my form collapses the shot will almost always hit low left. Maybe it's the short length. If I reach and hold full draw then the groups this bow will shoot are really great.

Once I get it to the finish stage, I will add a snake skin over the sinew. I have fired several hundred shots out of this bow now. I think she's going to make it.

Nice, Jim, great profile.

[razorsharptokill]

It goes back to straight when unstrung so it lost some reflex.

[Roy from Pa]

I love that reflexed limb tip profile also.

[KellyG]

I bet that bow has some snap to it.

[razorsharptokill]

Mine still needs the tool marks removed and the tips cleaned up.

[shawnee]

Dang Jim, you are a bow building machine!  That one looks awesome too, and I bet it really zips an arrow!

[coaster500]

Very nice hunter and great shootin  

[razorsharptokill]

It is probably my fastest yet. Sinew is some amazing stuff. A little tough getting used to a shorter bow but it really shoots great.

[mwosborn]

Very nice!  Going to have to try that profile.
