"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Yeah, beautiful.  A little deflex let's you get away with much bigger recurves, and your execution is flawless.  Beautiful.
