 Thought there were three different bows ;) That is a sweet one. What is the draw length and weight?

Spectacular work Eric!!!

I love the whole set...I have a bunch of dogwoods cured in the basement ready to be turned into some deer killers as well.

Hey Matt, let's do a Gullwing build-a-bow weekend sometime.

Is that a natural setback in the handle or did you form it. If you formed it I would like to hear how you do it. I mean heat gun or steam or boil. Man I really like them arras.

Beautiful bow!  I've been feeling a gullwing attempt in my future.  The arrows are awesome.  How long is the fletching?
