This is incredible. I haven't thought of using edge grain before. Wow! Great performance, elite speeds! Thanks for the force draw curve too.
Greg,
No risk, no gain. Expand the mold and try new things.

I'm not really sure if the edge grain had that much to do with it. I've only done one so I've got nothing to base my guess on but I think the design is where the speed comes from. I have made a few regular grain bows in this design and they are all fast.
