Jbell:
Manny, super sweet bow! How the heck do you keep all that reflex with such a short bow? How much did you start with? Also how many times did you belly temper? That's got to be a rocket launcher!

NOMADIC PIRATE:
Thanks guys.

Jbell, This was a quality stave I was keeping for a mean bow, but I got some back damage by grubs >:(so I had to make a short bow.

It was quality wood, started with 3 1/2" reflex, and tempered it heavyly a few times, it has a really low mass, and yes it's quick ;D

jpitts:
Beautiful bow Manny. I like the slender way you make them and that guava is a beautiful wood. I was out your way a couple years back. Wish we could have met.
