Good work. Nice bow. 400 gr arrow at 168 fps average is good.
.Nothing wrong with those numbers.

great bow DC! I'm new to this so it surprised me that you can make a bow out of that small of a stick! How did you do it?

I made it just like any other bow. With a sapling or branch there is just less wood to remove. I'm not sure what you're unsure of :D

Yeah Don...beautiful work man. I wouldn't be the least bit dissatisfied with that. It may seem slow compared to what you had hoped for but it shoots smooth and you can hit the mark that's what counts.

Thanks. I can't hit the mark but it's not the bows fault ;)

Another beauty DC. That yew sure makes for an attractive looking bow.
