Great job man.  That full draw looks sweet.  I dig the unbraced profile.  I like the dead flat look of an unbraced bow. Well done.

Wow man! I'd say you nailed that one. The tiller is spot on and I especially like the handle wrap.

Well executed! That tiller looks perfect and just the right amount of snake to give it a bit of character. A+!!!

   IdahoMatt, Thanks, I induced 2" of reflex and after tillering and shooting it came back dead flat...
   JO5H, Thank you, some 8oz leather I had...It was stubborn to fit tight!
   GunDoc, Thank you Josh, this one came out sweet...
   Rich, Thank you so much my friend...
   Tracy, It is smooth as butter for now, hope nothing changes...
    bubby, Lol, I really did get lucky this time...Thank you
    Pearl, Thanks man, It does feel balanced and has a really light thunk on the release so I stopped tillering
    right there even though I was a few pounds heavy.
    Blackhawk, Thankyou Sir, She's plain Jane but shoots good for me...
    Slim, Thank you for the compliment man...
    Will, Thanks for the A+ !!!
    GMC, Hoping she holds man...
                                                     Thanks everyone, coming from my peers these compliments sure
    mean a lot to me...
                                                          Don

Looks like the perfect bow Don, nothing simple about one made that well. Like the others I think you nailed the tiller on that bow, that full draw pic. could be one to use as a reference for great bend in that style. Must a good shooter too from the looks of it, real nice work.
