Designing a bow is tough

[beachbowhunter]

Tell you what BHE, that is a dam fine piece of work though. The way you handled the wedges like a RC and the deflexed riser is, I think, going to make it a hot bow. Let us know how it shoots!

Great looking design.

Look at a pronghorn. I have always liked the look for longbow but I prefer mass and shoot recurve.

Finally getting around to finishing this bow as well. This one will be finished out with Thunderbird Gloss clear. It has the first coat on and will wet sand with 1000 grit between coats. It is a killer looking bow and I can't wait to attempt my next one. I am going to redesign the riser and ask for input.

I think it looks great the way it is, but it does seem like it would feel a bit off if you're used to more conventional longbow risers. You'd probably get used to it after a few hundred shots, but if you're intent on changing it to be more of a 'typical' longbow riser try making it a bit shorter and straighter
