I wonder what the speed of that is. Do you have a chrono?

Seems so simple, but with all the twist and knots, it would be very challenging.  Incredible work

This is my new favorite Simson bow!  Outstanding Sir!  I really like the old school long fades and classic grip style.  The cherry bark grip just put it over the top for me.  Josh

Both apple and plum are on my to do list. This bow proves why.

As always Simon - Outstanding ! I'm a BIG fan of Cherry Bark (Have some drying now) - the grip is over the top pretty ! Bob
