Very nice yew bow Accipiter, pretty piece of yew but the real proof of its worth is in accuracy your getting out of her. Nicely done.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Nice bow.

With a reasonably heavy arrow that is huntable weight for deer sized game. Get a 500gr arrow with a sharp two blade and that will definately get it done.

Took my first grad deer with a bow pulling 43#@25" and got nearly 12+" of penetration. Pretty sure I underdrew the bow by at least an inch too because I was so nervous.

Sweet looking bow! Gotta love working with yew. Especially after vine maple or ocean spray. You nailed that one.
