Wildcat, you are a natural!!!  8) I love that unbraced profile and the braced and full draw are quite striking too. Very well done.

Nice looking bow!

Does it bend through the handle a little?

Sweet! love the brace shot and the flipped tips make it look quick.

Really amazing for a second bow!
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."
