I did something I normally don't do cus I thought I might wanna flip or recurve the tips with only having a one inch of reflex start...so I cut some temporary side nocks and started tillering her out...here it is at a 5 1/2" brace

I got it pulling out to 22"...no clue on exact poundage yet,but its close to high 50's right now right there.......look I made a triangle...or a diamond including the string..lol.....funky looking huh

It's a working for ya.It should shoot ok I'd think.Never seen anything like it yet but it does have an endearing quality to it though.Sure would raise some eyebrows that's for sure.

iIwould have messed that stave all up. Pretty cool looking bow. All of your bows are awesome and
it'll be fun to watch and see how you finish that one and then what you come up with next. Danny

By the way that thing is looking good,you done some magic on that gnarly piece of wood,nothing is safe around you.

So lets make things even..i got one floating out there unfinished too...lol 😁

Been meaning to do something with this one but it never gets picked up...i think i wanna steam some recurves in it...maybe soon-ish...this ones to cool to let it just sit.

About time, just been 2 1/2 years, should be well seasoned.

Look forward to seeing it in the works.

Hey, I remember that bow! At least from when you posted rough out pictures of it years back. Glad to see it is still alive. It is looking awesome. I like the idea of some recurve.
