It's at the top of my limit for a push/pull and with my wrist the way it is beyond me at this time so I use the step through

Mark, I had no idea you had problems with your wrist; I for sure did not mean to make fun of that!
I could pull that bow and I would have the exact same sort of frown in my face, so that's what I thought it was...
Really sorry about that.
Hope you get better soon!

Not a problem Frank.  Not the first time I hurt myself

Marc,

I broke my right wrist 5 years ago. It healed fine and only hurts now when I push as opposed to pull with it. Doc said the archery should actually be good for it.

Very gracefull bow. Any instability with it being long, narrow and a bit reflexed? What is the central lam?

It was quite a shock when my wrist let go as I was pressure flaking, I guess I was pushing too hard.

The middle lam is Rock Maple.  I glued in about 3" of reflex and it has kept about half of that.

There was a small amount of lateral instability initially but it is fine now.

Marc, it is aways a pleasure to see one of your bows. You have really perfected the art of bow building. I rarely post on forums but wanted to congratulate you on your craftmanship.
