Mo,  I really like it.  Smooth, simple lines, but ramrod straight and excellent tiller.  I mean really well thought out for the length, draw weight, materials, etc...  Elliptical with slightly longer stiff tips....... spot on.

And, I loved how you described the process of making decisions and solving little things like the handles.  To ME that's where brains and experience really count, and it's fun to hear how it works out. NO stave is perfect, there is ALWAYS something I have to fix, from a bug hole to tear-out from splitting to drying checks in the handle, blah, blah,blah....
