Got the bow finished up. Needs a few more coats but as far as I`m concern- it`s done.
Walnt riser, Zebrawood and black glass tips. Came out 32#@28" so I`m happy I hit the weight I wanted.

Bend looks good, isn't it?
I feared that since I didn't use any taper, the looks will stay static, but they uncoil pretty nicely. Not all
the way, but enough....

I posted it on facebook and there`s a short video of me shooting it. Check it out.
It shoots pretty good, no vibrations, smooth draw.

If you fear failure, you will never try ! But never except it!!
