Very nice bow James.  

I wrote an article for PA on just such a bow that I made a few years ago.  Performance was amazing and it shot like a dream, as I'm sure yours does as well.  It was a bit shorter than yours at 65" long.  I've since made one that's 60" long using Bamboo backed Pau Ferro limbs.

Interesting. I have to say three piece takedown bows are not my cup of tea but you did a nice job executing it.  8)

I'm not a fan of those big risers, but you make that one look good. It looks fast just sitting there, bet it'll really spit an arrow.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.
