Sweet bow, and one lucky guy that ends up with it!

Great bow, Blackhawk.  If it won't give away too much info, what is the width of the limbs?

Thanks guys... ;)

Dave its a fat 1 5/8" wide at the fades till midlimb,then tapers to just under 3/8" tips. Its that wide cus the last ten inches is static and so the working limb needs to go a lil wider than for a normal flatbow,and because of the reflex I started with.

Beautiful well made shooter there.Gotta love the staves that require only a little heat bending of the tips as far as heat to the wood goes.Very little set for the length also.Is it being pulled to 28"?
