Very good design that has proven itself through time. You did a great job with it! And it does look fast!

If it doesn't rap the lintel, it might not be a longbow.

You aren't the same lukas that sells all those beautiful horn bows are you (saluki bows) ?
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

Very nice I like the deflex/reflex design.

thanks guys , a lot of people ask me - I am Saluki - Lukasz Nowotny.IM NOT LUKASZ NOWOTNY  ;) !!! Im Lukasz Nawalny , Im live in Europe , Poland, but even in my country many people have with this problem and make mistakes . Saluki comes from Czech Republic , Adam Karpowicz from Poland, Grozer from Hungary , not far away from Poland.In this region we have a lot of good bowyers, like in Brasil a lot of good soccer players  ;) Robustus , I have this same idea - I will make shorter version but with  small static recurve and sinew backing , this should be intresting
