Thanks guys.
Gordon. Please don't refer to this as a cut in shelf because I don't care for those either. This is my idea for a center shot bow

I like it, Marc. The handle area looks kinda like a Bear Kodiak Magnum.

If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I should say so! Very, very nice! Very distinctive, too.

If it doesn't rap the lintel, it might not be a longbow.

I have used Hard Maple, it glues very well also. I don't use any of the ring porous woods.

very nice bow, love the profile. was splicing it together at that angle in the handle difficult? or is the splice simply cut straight then the pieces angled?
