 Very nice bow. I've always loved that style. Can you post a full draw picture that is all the way back? That style should draw 28 to 32". I'd like to see the tiller when it is cranked back to shooting form.

From  what  I  gather  on  PA horn  bows  are  slow,  doesn't  prevent them  from striking  looks:)

Like said Adam Karpowicz great polish horn/sinew bowmaker - horn bow under 60 lbs  shoot not better then good wooden bow - great performance  this type of bows beginning from this draw weight.  Horn and sinew make bow havy .My first horn bow with 50 lb shoot arround 175 fps and I think its quite good.I want make next bow over 60 lb , we will see .

Fine looking bow and looks like a real challenge to make. Great job!
