Looks pretty darn good David, but as Justin said the top limb is a bit off, but oh well eh
if yer happy and the bow shoots than its a complete success :)

Very nice job, good design for performance and paralell limbs. Justin, I think everyone here knows that you are being constructive and helpful when you make a suggestion as it should be, and ditto what you suggested. Steve

Nice work David...

The critique of the others brings up a question for me.  The bow appears to be "out of balance" so that the draw makes it look like it is tilting down.  Is this because of the apparently weaker top limb???

Just curiousity making me think that you could definitely feel the balance issue when one is tillering the bow....

Good job DW. I like the overall apperance with the dark stain and black linen. Looks like a good shooter.
