I really like the bend on that bow especially with the character in the limbs. That grip looks like it would account for consistent hand placement. Something I find very important for good accuracy. Excellent job.

Very good work. Your bow curves a little more in the lower limb where it has a little kink when not braced. That means you have done a GOOD job of tillering. Saw you coming and going a lot at the Classic, but didn't get to gab much.

Yes Jim

Good to see you. Helped a bunch of guys building bows Mon -Thurs. Finished four complete bows.

That piece of hedge I had stashed was a Challenge for sure. Think the bottom limb had 6 large pin knots right up the middle. Stayed up one night there and finished out that limb entirely.

That's a keeper. Love it!

Never saw this in the PA-Mag but pocket lint was the bow I built for the SB Challenge 2019.
