Gordon, I think the best part of a trade is studying a bow made by someone else and learning everything you can from it. I also love using the tree for what it is. There is no better way to get everything out of a bow than following all the natural shapes of the stave. Many people do not appreciate this and when I make a bow from a stave with say more reflex in one limb, they think my tiller off at full draw. I know you know better. There is a lot I could learn from you and many others on this site. I always test my bows in my backyard range by going all the way to the fence where it is 27 yards to the target to see how little the arrow drops by the time it hits the target. Your arrow flew with very little arc and passed with flying colors.
