Thanks for all the great comments.  I will be making more recurves in my future.
And I think I may have this on submitted for the BOM.
I traded a hhb stave for the yew stave. And so glad I did.

Thanks jimjimmysticks
Thanks buckeye guy.and pearl drums thanks. And the arrow in the picture is 32" . So I figure I was at least 26 in the picture.
Man this bow hits down range hard. One of my favorite to date.
But I gave a osage recurve in the making now. Well it has a long way to go. I just ran a ring yesterday. And it has to season some.

Bob,
           The Osage you mentioned, is that the one you sent me pictures of with the perfect natural reflex? That looks awesome so far...Ratio looked good also
