Looks good.  deflex handles can make good shooters. Chris I am not sure you can build a bow with out some challenge that is beyond most everyone else ability.  You ever build a straight forward bow? Keep them coming I like to see what you will do next. Arvin
Well I'll say!!  Osage is king!!

 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."
