TBod, you are right, I took the design of my bow from the TBB4, and it really works.
I was really surprised about the comfort and arrowspeed.

Very nice bow! Great job on the finish work, and those tips are an example of how small tips can be made and still hold up. I like the handle wrap as well! ;)

Great Bow! I love sapling bows.  Whats the diameter of the stave?  I've found with plum sapling bows that its hard to have enough wood for a 50lb once you get below the pith.  Looks like the pithc is very thin on that Hazel.  Thanks,

Did anyone else get that uneasy feeling for that split second, when you can see the arrow coming towards you? :o

@rossfactor
The stave was about 1,2 inches in diameter.

@TBod
I shot some arrows through the chronograph. 424grain arrow with 168fps.
