Nice, my last one had the curvy handle thing, and gave a real smooth arrow flight.
Should be sweet, can't wait to see the full draw.

What a hack job... :laugh:  kidding.

That is one smooth hypnotic bend. Perfect. I like it. That one might deserve some purtty designs and finish on it. Plain jane is nice too tho.

Flip those tips an inch or so Katt and watch that sucker fling an arrow! Hackberry bends real easy and fast with dry heat.
