 Very nice ! Looks like an almost dead knock off design of a Ron LaClair "Shrew" or is it just me ? Lol !!  ;D

Thanks for the comments guys.
Never seen a "Shrew" but there are loads of fiberglass bows out there using this Hybrid recurve/longbow design. I just haven't seen many made with natural materials yet.  I was inspired to build one like this after I saw a bow that James Parker AKA "Robustus" made.  Thanks for the inspiration James !  ;D
