Really nice.  Is the extension of the first lam of the riser out in a thin tapering manner a strategy to avoid popoff?

nice bow david!!   :)   I love the fact you can get a 29" draw out of a 58" bow w/ a handle riser!!!!  Gives me something to SHOOT for (no pun intended)   :)   -josh

I am sure I will need all the luck I can get.. ;D..  The thin tapered lams are there to avoid pop off.. I do belive that with a power lam you might not need them but I like to be safe and I think it gives me the chance to show some nice wood combo's in the riser as well..

Great lookin' bow David. If you're swinging thru Oklahoma on your way back from Texas, let me know and I'll fire up the smoker. ;D Good luck!

One of the advantages of BOM is that we get a second look at bows. Otherwise, due to the popularity of the BOWS forum, a bow, once posted, winds up several pages back very quickly. Soon it is forgotten except for the most diligent of researchers.
So, you might reconsider offering up this fine bow for BOM.
