That bow's beautiful Will. Love that profile. You sure have been building some really nice bows lately.

Beautiful bend and beautiful bow, Pin nut Hickory is sometimes way under rated, it makes a beautiful durable bow.  :)

Beautiful bow Will, I can only dream of making hooks that tight without snapping the off.

Great bow, and it's holding a sweet unbraced profile. I bet it is snappy.

Thanks fellas. I steamed the recurves in and they typically don’t give me too much trouble. I keep them 1/2” thick and steam for 40 minutes. The bow has great string tension at brace and is very smooth to draw...a joy to shoot.
